No problem!!
I agree on the flashprint. The only reason I brought it up was that during my setup the instructions said to run it and do a firmware update. Don't know if it actually did anything but didn't seem to break it.
Yes, USB can be an issue and probably the most common thing aside from the ports powering down is people using cables that are to long or extension cables. USB 3 can also be problematic depending on the driver/printer combo. I have one printer that will not run off a USB 3 but works fine on USB 2 ports, two others work fine on the USB 3's. I do have a tested USB solution for those interested. I use a USB extender via network cable. I run 3 printers off 3 75 foot runs and have no issues. I just like to monitor on S3D!
Yes on the extruders or it was still moving just a slight bit of filament and spinning its wheels. Either way a definite possibility.
I was wondering if his issue could be heat related. It really sounds more electrical to me especially on a new machine.
Thanks for the commentary - I am always needing to learn more also and apologies for being a little over reactive!!
