Thank you for the suggestion regarding the SD card potentially being the issue. I appreciate your input!
I recently installed a new SD card from a well-known and reputable manufacturer at the same time I received my printer, so I don’t believe the card itself is the root cause. This problem only occurs when printing directly from the studio software; it never happens when printing from the SD card.
The SD card is only a month old, and if the printer managed to damage it, this would be the fastest any device has ever caused an SD card failure for me. For context, I’ve used the same type of card from the same manufacturer in a much harsher environment with my Raspberry Pi 4, and it survived three years of heavy use without issues.
Before the issue occurs, I notice the video stream starts to stutter, the connection to the printer drops, and eventually, the printer completely locks up. Even if, by some magical reason, the SD card were at fault, the printer locking up entirely is unacceptable as it presents a safety risk.
If the SD card were failing, wouldn’t the print fail consistently or at the start of the job? Additionally, I’ve been able to use the same cached G-code file to produce a successful print, which seems to rule out the card as the cause.
I’d love to hear any additional thoughts or suggestions. Thank you again for your help!
