Greetings, before reaching out to support, i figured I would post here. I noticed yesterday after a print that there was a hum coming from the inside of the printer. Sounds like the back right. I thought maybe it was a fan still cooling some thing down. I go in there today, 20 hours later and the hum is still there. I can not pin point where it is coming from. I powered down the H2D and powered it back up, and the hum is still there. It is not the part fan or the auxiliary fan. It may be the exhaust fan, but it really doesn’t sounds like a fan, just a very low hum. Any ideas?
thank you for any help,
This one?
That could be the hum I am hearing. It makes sense of they say that is normal. This printer doesn’t sit idol much and when it is, I usually have 1 or more of my P1S running so I never noticed it before. It was very quite yesterday and that is where I heard it.
thanks for the response.
That fun runs all the time, not sure why. just going to wear out much faster constantly running
If it the fan and not power supply humming I doubt wearing out while idle is going to be a concern. Many a data center and offices are filled with PCs that have the fans running for years before they clog up and die. It’s the clogging up and getting too much resistance that puts some strain on them outside of heat and poor quality bearings.
