Since updating to the latest software 2.0.0.59 and the new firmware for printer, i have a problem where the purge is missing the shoot all together, it either spills out the outside of the shoot or makes a huge blob its almost like the flow is to much and it doesnt know when to stop.
I have retentioned the timing belts applied grease and oil where is needed clean the extruder i have done all sorts of calibrations using the software i cannot get the thing to print nice at all.
Printing in pteg for months without issues, since updates no stop issues.
Well i never thought it was possible but the nozzle was bent so badly out of shape ooooops!!! Got a new one luckly how did i miss that so yeah if nozzle is missing shoot future reference check the nozzle
It is good you solved the problem, but also that you reported back.
Good on you.
do you know what bends the nozzle so i can make sure i dont do it again or is it just general wear and tear had it for atleast 3 months
Normally it only occurs by impacting something already on the print bed.
This can be due to a GCODE sequence sending the head into the printed model.
More common, it is after trying to print something when the build plate already had a previous model which wasn’t cleared off.
thats something i can say has never been done i am methodical with my setups, this you know the metal tube that connects to the nozzle that bent out of shape at a 10 degree atleast.
Share a photo if you can.
You are better than me, I do it too often, thankfully, no real damage caused.
I blame the fact that I have so many printers, plus, I am old, and the old brain doesn’t work as well as it used to.
hahah fairenough i think it might be because i was printing in petg at 265c might of been to much heat after prolonged use its the only thing i can think, youtube advice hahah
Very early in my P1S ownership days I got the dread Front toolhead cover has fallen off and got into swapping parts at BL’s direction. They had me do other control things I don’t remember.
Out of that, I wrecked both sides of a dual sided build plate when the toolhead ran to its home position at about -.5mm below Z 0. Both sides because I flipped plate over when it seemed fixed and it did the same thing.
