Near the beginning of each print I get an error message saying that the nozzle is covered with filament or the build plate is installed incorrectly. This occurs with any nozzle or filament and multiple build plates. It usually occurs 1-5 minutes into the print and pauses until I take action to resume the print. This started a couple weeks ago and I’ve had my mini for about 3 months now. I’ve followed the maintenance procedures diligently and have the print always proceeds after this single message to successful completion. It never occurs again during a print.
Hi,
Perhaps you should try this :
This check is done at layer 3. It runs the nozzle all the way past the back right corner, and checks if it hits anything.
Run a print, and watch for it, see what happens.
You didn’t happen to install a plate alignment guide, did you?
I did install a plate alignment guide and I think that is the culprit. Actually I submitted it to Maker World and I saw a little bit of filament rubbed off on the top right edge of the alignment guide. I think the nozzle is not able to touch the plate surface due to the height of the alignment guide with the additional filament that has adhered to it and interprets this as filament covering the nozzle. It has not been an issue since I cleaned the excess filament off of the guide top. I’m going to modify the guide so it doesn’t protrude as high above the bed surface on the right and hope that will fix the issue since I find the alignment guide to be very helpful when putting down a magnetic plate.

There are some alignment guides that have been redesigned to be compatible with the new code. But, In my case, I just removed it. TBH, I found the guides to only be minimally useful.
I’m getting the same. Exact. Error. I have clump detection OFF, tangle detection OFF and also bed detection OFF and I’m getting this error on EVERY. SINGLE. PRINT.
I think I’m gonna revert firmware and see what happens. I didn’t have this issue before. Now I do.
firmware didnt help. So on to my next idea… ill keep everyone posted.
Did you fix it? Mine just started doing this and I don’t have any plate guides or anything.
After trying a few things, I myself was able to solve my issue.
I switched to an older version of the slicer. Upon doing so, even with the newest firmware installed, my false errors stopped.
I tested both orca slicer and Bambu lab slicer. Both of the most current slicers produced the false error. I then tested older variants, and the issue resolved itself. (Fwiw: I own a Mac and I save my version installs individually because of issues such as this… this isn’t the first program I’ve seen have hiccups lol)
If anyone else wishes to try and test my resolution, just grab an older version of orca and try it. I jumped to 2.0.1 for example and my problems stopped. Dunno why… but I’ve been printing 24/7 now since my last comment with absolutely zero false errors.
I get this error as soon as I upgrade Bambu Studio to a higher version. I tried to upgrade to two different releases, but they both generate this false error. I went back to version 1.08.02.56 and my A1 prints flawlessly. Go figure!
dehighlight the dynamic check pre print, just use bed level.
It is a 3rd layer thing, I used a gcode friendly text editor and found
damn it, 420… G0346… thats not it but closeish
I killed all those manually in the start code for all 4 or 5 profiles I made.
I have all but clump turned back on, runs fine … with a 4 noz
I have the same issue and after some research, I found that the “Mini Tool Storage Box with Lid” was the culprit, I modified the STL and made a negative square to the LID in the middle to the nozzle don’t touch the LID when is trying to check for the plate.
