yes i i do have .35 i build my prusa so it's not an ultimaker i don't have bowen.
i dont need brim my prints are glass are rock solid.
that was slowed down i had it a twice the speed. but i will try even slower... i think you may be right about the wall .7
the reason i had temp high was because i was printing abs.
as far as retraction i get no blob or drips.
Thanks

i have developed tiny bumps and some tiny loops on my prints.
I dont know wher this came from my print were very clean before.
my firmwre has not changed. i upgraded to the lastest version of cura 14.07
i print from sd with my lcd screen.
using .35 nozzle
this is what i normally print like
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/uce85vk8yj52mpp/AABa7PFMfEifSGPKxkp_oy2aa
Quad copter arm.
Phone case.
and now this is my problem
Bumps on legs
loops on sword.

I changed walls to .5 that seemed to do the trick.
Yes nozzle setting and filament was measured 2.85 annd set.
-
Ok I print with heat bed 65c
Nozzle is 215c so there is no setting to make lines closer together or future apart? On the layers? Yes I have a goo squish if it squished flat any more I would get a jam.
What is the recommend setting for .35 nozzle
I used to get great prints with .4 nozzle
Thanks
-
Hi i just just changed my nozzle type down to a .35
on my bottom layer i am getting a "tiny bit of spacing between each line
how do i close the tiny gap between each line? i want a solid smooth bottom with no gaps.
Thanks

Ok I I will turn it off bit I have printed the exact same thing with no issues.
I will try without and see what happens
-
ok i didnt use % sign i just put in numbers 20 40 50 70 100
here is the g code https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6dQZ8ooyMRyQlEydTEzS3YtUTA/edit?usp=sharing'>https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6dQZ8ooyMRyQlEydTEzS3YtUTA/edit?usp=sharing'>https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6dQZ8ooyMRyQlEydTEzS3YtUTA/edit?usp=sharing'>https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6dQZ8ooyMRyQlEydTEzS3YtUTA/edit?usp=sharing

was printing ok then it stopped connecting to laptop to i put files on sd card and was printing ok then the print was not looking right so i bumped the infill up and then i got the hollow and now all my objects print hollow.
-
Ok I will try it
Thanks
I think reverting to older version of cura may have resolved my z axis issue.
-
It was 14.01 no I did not play with any other settings.
I have gone back to 13.10 and it is printing fine.
-
Because cura has a cap for 3mm filament I think it 120.
-
I am having same problem I can put 10% 40% 80% ans I still get empty shell with know good model.

Yes m119 was trying to test out my end stops before printing
Yes I am using marlin I was pronterface today I want to see how well my calibration I have to use pronter just to be able to have live code input. But I was test to see how fast my printer could go.. Started with m220 s100 then s150 s175 s200 I was around s280 I did not want to really push it but my print was clean edges sharp I was doing a 40 mm fan mount adapter the had sharp corners circles hole infill a Jump to the second part horizontal holes all the things for real world test.
So I went to cura to input speed 200 it said it was not possible to print at that speed so I will not let you put those numbers in. ...what is up with that?
What I would like to see is a way I can manually put my gcode in a command line like pronterface I can heat up my bed faster, turn fans off and on, speed up print in certain section or slow then down using m220 etc.

Ok sorry been away first it a prusa i3. With ramps 1.4 home built.
I have tried it with pronterface and no problems
I found a older profile which I loaded up now and the older profile it can print but still on occasions it will continue the same past issues so what I do now is a bit of a pain but I do it to use cura.
Load old profile configure old profile
Is auto home level bed then raise z .9 mm set temp hit print.
Works..
I had tried doing a "new machine" redid all settings but that did not work.
My auto home starts at left corner nearest to you.. How can I set it up manually so that I don't need to use the z end stop?
Oh is there also a way to use m modes like m119 or m220 beer or during the print?
Thanks

How do I input codes like m220 or m119 before I start printer or during?
Thanks

I am having a problem with my z axis it was alway working fine. Then one ny next print i did auto home like i normally do it did that little bounce and set itself correctly.
I waited for everything to heat up the when the temp was right and the gcodes kicked in (checking the g28)
x and y was good but the z did not do the bounce instead it continues to go negative squishing the z endstop till it can go no more then it tries to print. pressing and scrapping the glass.
I have swapped out the step drivers same issue i also swapped out the endstop. it works fine if i hit auto home on my lcd. it's when it starts to print the second autohome from the gcode it messes up. any ideas?
It not the endstop u can do auto home all day and every day and it will stop on a dime, it only with cura where it continues sqaushing down on the endstop till it cant go any futher.,

I just downloaded the latest cura i was looking at machine settings but it does not give me the option for my bed size..
I have prusa rework printer.
Thanks!
