While I was setting up a new Ender 3 v2, and tuning the z-steps value, I noticed that some layers were extending beyond the others in the x and y axes. I didn’t notice any pattern related to which …

I’ve noticed there have been some strange patterns occurring in my prints lately, sort of like warping. I’ve attached a picture of a Benchy below and an image of a project I’m working on. But as you’…

I wanted to experiment with a 3D printer and downloaded Lychee Slicer and wanted to print an Unreal asset. I took a free one from the store and exported the static mesh as …

This summer I bought a white PLA+ filament from Sunlu. After some trials, I found these settings in Ultimaker Cura for my Dremel 3D45: The layer thickness is 0.2 mm. The objects were printed almost …

Is there a way to get rid of the (yellow) internal support, Cura is generating for overhangs? I am already printing with 3 walls, so there should be no additional benefit in this case and it is …

I’m wondering if anyone has ever gotten the Ender 4.2.2 board to send I2C commands? I’m looking to add some extra features, and I2C seems the best way to do it. So far, I’ve reflashed Marlin with the <...

Every time I print something I get these random bands on my prints that look like layers that are just too thick. I’ve tightened my X-axis belt to the best of my ability, and my Y-axis belt is …

I recently upgraded my Creality Ender 5 with an SKR Mini E3 V2.0 running Marlin 2.0.7.2. The printer has also been modified with an all-metal hotend and a direct drive conversion kit that uses the …

I have been reading through the Marlin website about ABL (Auto Bed Leveling) and I see what appears to be conflicting information. At marlinfw.org/docs/features/auto_bed_leveling.html it …

My first and only 3D printer is a Printrbot Simple Metal, which has a hotend that doesn’t expose any of its internal parts. Easy for beginners, I suppose: “The hotend is that tube that heats up the …
|
Various methods to scan the top surface exist to improve the bed adhesion to prevent prints to come loose from the bed during printing: e.g. BLTouch and clones or inductive and capacitive sensors/…

I am very new in the 3D printing scene. After a lot of searching for my specific problem (and didn’t find any answers, of course) I decided to reach out. I bought a Creality Ender 3 Pro in November …

I have a 3D Printer with 0.4 mm (400 micron) nozzle length and the printer guide suggests that it can print up to a layer thickness of 60 micron and has a accuracy up to 100 micron. What I’m …

Can you answer these questions?

When I need to print higher-temp filament at 225 °C the nozzle temp turns off for just a second but this is enough to send the temp down to about 200 °C before it recovers to print temp. This jams up …

Referring to a circle shape G-code online generator for my 2D printer at here, in which I created a 100 mm circle. I downloaded the G-code from the website and try to open it with UGS plotter but it …
