Some issues with new MakerFarm Prusa 8 i3v
Hello all!
So, I am new to this whole 3d printing thing, I just got my printer all setup today and I am having a few issues.
I have a Prusa 8 i3v with 0.40MM 1.75mm Hexagon head
1: My prints aren't sticking to the glass I tried the hairspray method and it didn't help much.
2: The filament is barely extruding, and when it does it curls up.
3: The extruder is kind of popping off the V rail.
I'm not sure how to level the bed exactly, I just made the head EXTREMELY close to the bed.
I am currently trying to print with PLA and the temps I'm using is 250c for hot end and 80c for the bed. I tried with 220c for the hot end but it was even worse and if I go higher than 250c the curling issue remains.
I will post a video and some pics soon of the extruder to show how it just comes off the rail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
