  • What is the highest temp you ever loaded? You may have burnt up the PTFE tube in the barrel of the hot end.
  • Thanks, This helps a lot!!! israel
  • Thanks, Per your suggestion, in the multiple extruder section, OOZE  protection was checked. That is what caused the wall. Thanks, Israel
  • Have you seen the problem I described before?  It was driving me crazy.  My prints would sometimes come out very loosely formed, with lots of very rough surfaces.   I did everything to figure it out.   I checked the PID, extrusion speed rate, prin…
  • Thanks for the info.I did calibrate my extrusion steps per mm. I am spot on when I extrude 100mm. Diameter of the filament is 1.75, Measured filament 3 spot about 1 foot from each measurement to 1.74, 175, 1.76, averaged back to 1.75 enable volumetr…
  • HI,What you mentioned is was I was thinking. But, the 1st layer is beautiful!! Nice skirt and brim in the surface, very even. Here is the strange thing about what is going on.  I found another application called Mattercontrol. I print with this and…
  • Hi again! Where do I slow down the extruder?  At the same config pulldown for the EEPROM? Or the feedrate on manual control?  Also, when you mean slipping, is that the slight thumping sound I hear when feeding the filament?  Last question, (I hope),…
  • Thanks, that took care of the problem. I just selected the default settings and it dropped down from 88 on 80 on some values, (those that I noticed). When I first got the printer a few weeks ago, I went into the tools pull down and selected belt ca…
  • That makes sense that something is wrongly defined, causing the problem. So where do I find this "resolution" setting in the firmware? Is it a change in the configuration.h file? I noticed that the Repetier staff know their business, and are able t…
  • I have noticed the same thing with my prints. I have specifically measured an interior length to fit something I own and when I go to print it the entire print is about 10% larger that what I designed. For example, I need my print to have an openin…
  • Thanks for the info. What are pid settings? Can they be changed for Nylon? How do I change these settings? Are these settings part of Repetier software? If not, what software will allow me to change them? Thanks, Israel
  • Thank you for the info. But the question remains.... What do I need to access the eeprom?  Or is it part of the Repetier application, if so , where? Thanks!!
  • OK, I am using a feeler gauge and it helps a lot.  Hear is a thought... I found another printing/slicer program that sets 3 spots on the bed with 3 adjustments per spot. First the 1mm, then .1mm then .01mm... Then it saves that info in the eeprom an…
  • OK, I got it resolved. I forgot to make the ymax 225. Phew, Thanks for your assistance!
  • OK, now I am confused again... LOL I know I am missing something very fundamental, and it is making me mental! I measured exactly the middle of the 200x200 bed and marked it on the blue tape. I KNOW where the center of the bed is. I created a cross …
  • I think I know what you are referring to. When I home Y, the bed heads away from the front of the printer till it hits the physical end stop. I measured from the tip of the extruder to the edge of the bed and it is 20mm. Is that what is throwing me …
  • Depends on what you do. Do you home z and never move z and only change bed height until paper fits below? I home z and never move z and change the bed height as you stated. Is the extruder/bed hot when you do so? I have only done this to a cold be…
  • Great info! But I am a NOOB. How do I "make it trigger deeper"? and Z=0 being to high? please explain. I do have a good level on the bed to the nozzle, using a single sheet of paper, on all four corners. I do verify this before I print. The proced…
