Repetier Server - Pi - Acting very strange

Repetier Experts,

I've used a raspberry pi to create a print server using the server software in hopes that it will un-teather a laptop that I've got permanently glued to my printers.

Setup was a snap, and connection to the printers also went very smooth. I have full control over the motions of them, temperatures, etc.  Very nice software.  Unfortunately, whenever I send something to print from Repetier-Host, that's where the weirdness happens.

The printers draw the outline skirt just fine, and then pretty much just do whatever they want after that.  It looks like they're ~trying~ to print the little calibration cube - but they fail miserably.  Speeds are adjusted randomly, and the printer never raises the Z axis.

Never seen anything like it before.  - All of my printers are Arduino/RAMPS combo, loaded with Marlin firmware, and work great when attached to a machine using Repetier-Host.

Any ideas?

    Seems like we have a bug in combination with marlin sind 0.70. We are searching the source and will release 0.70.1 as soon as we have found it. If you can create a log for printing and post where you get the resend error plus 200 lines before it happens and 100 lines after first resend. That could help to analyse the reason.

    Finally had a chance to get back to this - and it appears you are right on the money.


    After uploading 70.1 it appears to have resolved my particular issues.  I have yet to put my Prusa i3 behind the Pi, but my Delta printer (which is also an arduino/ramps combo just as the i3) works flawlessly.  I'll try the Prusa when time permits outside of my work schedule.


    Keep up the good work guys!  :)
