I just purchased a Flash Forge Creator Pro and am having difficulty with the filament 'laydown' process. No matter what changes I've made using PLA filament, I keep getting the same result, which is . . .
The initial filament strip that is layed down at the front of the platform when the print initiates appears to be fine. It adheres and doesn't show any abnormalities in the extruded filament. However, once the extruder positions itself to begin the print process the filament doesn't lay down on the platform and instead tends to attach to the extruder head. I've made several changes in the platform temperature [started at 70 & changed to 80]. I made changes to the extruder temperature [started at 200 for Level 1, going to 190 on Level 2, changed to 210/190]. I changed the Z-axis from -.05 to 0 to +.05. I releveled the table [twice], and still get the same results. I'm confused about why the initial line laid down is fine but when the model begins, the unit behaves as described. ANY suggestions would be welcome.
