What printer did you choose in the firmware?
and this might be silly but Rambo accepts two Z motors, make sure yours is connected to E0 and not Z or E1.

Re: Canada Team
Hi and welcome! Hope you enjoy building the machine. Feel free to ask anything. For better aid with your printer settings share that .STL (or a similar one if you worry about someone copying it). If it's a very tall print, then I would recommend PLA or PET-G, ABS will crack/lift due to shrinkage if ...

Re: Transported RSV3 and now 1st layer issues
Hello, if the printer shuts down while it's printing then there is a short somewhere or the psu is malfunctioning. Someone with an electronics background should step up and help you here, I wouldn't know where to start. If you see a "def" then one or both thermistors are broken or not properly ...

Re: 1st Layer issue
Yes, you are right, the 3rd one shouldn't stick. I gave that tip because I thought it could be a gravity issue. When your hotend is at printing temperature and you leave it like this for a long time, if you hit print, it will take a few seconds for the filament to start coming out. But now I think ...

Extrude 10mm by console before you hit "start print" and make sure it actually extrudes.

Re: Transported RSV3 and now 1st layer issues
Sorry but if nothing was changed before and after you moved the printer, then there is no reason to be a software problem.
You should check everything mechanical related. Go through every bolt, belt, carriage. They issue must be there.
Best of luck

Re: Print Quality Degrading mid-print
25mm/s is a conservative speed, mine is the same. But, how long your retracts? if they are close to 2mm then it's ok, if they are >4mm then lower them. When the issue starts, is it retracting a lot or it's just the same as it was a few layers below? If it's not retract related, then I could only ...

Re: Rostock v2 - New Power Supply?
The easiest way would be to get a 12v 29a psu and use it as it is. You could bump up the output voltage to like 13.5v (I think) and get a bit quicker bed. I've used the machine like this for a few weeks when my ssr died. Fans didn't seem to bother those extra volts. Or you could go the 24v+ssr route ...

Re: Print Bed Material
One corner of the print lifted after 20 min. It finished ok, but I guess that plastic shrinkage was here to blame. The first layer was really low, like If you print a cube you would get elephant foots. I intentionally did this to minimize lifting, but no luck. I will try with a different brand and ...

Re: Flying cold end?
I used to have my cold end extruder "flying" above the effector, but there is still a bowden tube connecting it to the hotend. I ditched it... not because of the weight, as it was using a counterweight pulley, but because of the mass. When the machine was printing, the flying extruder bounced when ...

Re: Filament Jam E3Dv6
30 is fine. Yes, just reduce retraction distance and see if that solves it. Also, it looks like it's a part with a lot of retracts after another right? It could also be that. If reducing retraction distance doesn't solve it, you could try setting a "minimum travel before retract". Mine is set to 1 ...

Re: Filament Jam E3Dv6
Hello, try with a much lower retraction distance and see how it goes.
If you see a lot of stringing increase it a bit, but I wouldn't go over 3mm.
I would recommend:
2.5mm retracts or lower
25mm/s retract speed
PS: by 190 you mean PLA extrusion temperature or retraction speed?

Re: Print Quality Degrading mid-print
Image isn't showing for me.
If had to guess, you are retracting too much/fast and the nozzle gets clogged.
Could also be a temperature issue.
Share your print speeds, temperatures and retractions so we can help you better.
Best of luck.

The newer socks have a much larger hole where the nozzle fits through almost completely. Many people cut out the nozzle from the older socks, just to prevent what you describe. PETG seems to stick pretty hard to the silicone. Along with the Aero I bought a pack of 3, but the older ones... I was ...
