Is the hot end set to the correct temperature for the filament you're using?

g.
Yes - 220 degrees - using PLA from SeeMeCNC

I'm sure there is a way to resolve this but I'm stumped

Thank you

Re: ERIS - Clicking Sound, No Filament Coming Out, Unload Doesn't Work :(

When I load the filament you can see the filament going from ~1 inch beyond the EZR Struder to inside the hot end . . . then the clicking sound at the EZR Struder . . . and no melted filament comes out of the hot end - nothing, not even a tiny bit I checked the connector at the hot end - seems good ...

Re: ERIS - Clicking Sound, No Filament Coming Out, Unload Doesn't Work :(

Maybe I should take up another hobby . . . having the patience and understanding required to make these machines work well doesn't come naturally for me . . .

But I do appreciate the help and suggestions

Re: ERIS - Clicking Sound, No Filament Coming Out, Unload Doesn't Work :(

Thank you geneb & Mac The Knife!

I will make an effort to do this and get this thing up and running - when it works, it really does a great job

I realize the ERIS has been discontinued however, is there any possibility of obtaining an ERIS build document?

Thanks again!

The current and new hotend are from SeeMeCNC for the ERIS so I hope it goes well

It would be nice to have a document to guide through the process - maybe I'll make one
