Hi all,
I just started operating a used Ultimaker Original, and I've been running into a few problems that I hoped to get some tips on.
First, the first few layers don't always stick and the filament sometimes goes awry and sometimes I need to restart the print. I aligned the print board beforehand, but maybe I don't know the very best way. Sometimes I let it print and it fixes itself, but the bottom of my print might have some squiggly misaligned filaments. Any tips? My nozzle is not the cleanest (it came like that), is that the problem? Is there an easy way to clean it? Image attached.
Also, after successfully printing an object, I had run a print of a small shampoo bottle overnight. The next morning it had fallen over halfway and the filament went crazy everywhere (image attached). Any tips for a problem like this?
Thanks so much and hope to hear back from you guys soon.
