Printer not moving after starting a job, but gcode is running in console

Hi! 

Just an amateur printer trying to hook up repetier server to free up my laptop from dedicated printing sessions.. i used repetier host in the past and also played with octoprint..

I can control my printer manually, but when I start a job the printer just sits there.  In the console if i turn on commands and ack i can see the following gcode running:

13:28:51.624: ok (2)
13:28:51.624: N1167 G1 Z30.000 F120
13:28:51.624: N1168 G92 E0.0000
13:28:51.624: N1169 G1 F120
13:28:51.632: ok (3)

Is something wrong with the communication of the server to the printer??

Thanks for any and all help in advance!

-Stephen

  • This code in the console seems to be repeating or hinting at what the communication error may be.. just cant decipher the lines myself --

    that is strange - why should server need 340 byte to send a command. No firmware has such a big buffer and no gcode should need it. Only comments could be that long but do not get send. Any idea what command it want's to send here?
