It is possible that the nozzle is just worn out but I didn't ever use a drill bit to clear the nozzle. My technique was to remove the nozzle, heat the block, then use a 1/16 drill bit gently in...

I am having at least two problems right now.
1. The firmware is timing out before the right extruder reaches the designated temperature (it gets to about 180 and then stalls). Print temp is set for...

Good information, thanks. As pointed out to me by EagleSeven, I just hold the glass plate to the bed with hairspray but I will print the adapter and see how that works.

That may do an offset for a given print job but I would like to have the offset be set until changed so that I can level the print bed with the offset. I think that I will try printing the offset...

Horendus, regarding tip #4: I can find nothing in the printer settings that allow for an offset to the A axis. Others have suggested that the only way to offset the Z axis is to use a shim on...

I suspect that there is no other option. I did, however, find the reference to changing settings. It was in a post by Horendus on 9/1/15 ( I think I will separately reply to that post and ask how...

I installed a glass plate on my print bed and now the adjustment screws are just about maxed out. I think I saw a post somewhere that mentioned putting in an offset for the Z axis. I have looked...

The curling I am experiencing is not on overhangs, it is on a flat portion of the build, printed without a raft or a support. And it is not especially thin, perhaps 6 mm.
On turn-on the printer...

So I have a glass plate on the bed now and I increased bed temperature to 65 to account for the heat loss through the glass (printing with PLA). Have not had a successful print yet. There seems...

Thanks for the quick reply. So did you remove the Kapton tape that was on the bed in order to get to the aluminum plate?

Questions:
1. Is the glass bed approach just ordinary window glass on top of the bed? Is it taped to the bed to hold it in place? How does it affect the heat setting for the print bed?
2. I...

I am using Makerware 2.4.1.24, as stated above. When I Google Makerware download the latest that I find is 2.3.0.4. Where does 3.6 or 3.7 come from?

Thanks for the help. In Makerware there is a button on the lower left labeled 'Object'. This allows you to choose the extruder for a selected object. I will get the book.

Thanks again.

I am using Makerware 2.4.1.24 to generate x3g files for printing. I select 'The Replicator (Dual)' and it shows both the Left and the Right Extruders. However, it only allows the use of the Right...
