Thanks so much for all of your insight. I greatly appreciate it.
And yeah, you may have convinced me to grab an ultimaker...

Thank you for the insight; this is actually very helpful!
Since you are very articulate and helpful, may I bring up one more issue? When I go to move the individual stepper motors for my printrbot, such as x,y, or z, Cura won't recognize the task. However, when I select a home position, such as x-home or y-home, Cura will respond nicely.
So, I know I do not have an issue with the motors. I am not sure though why I cannot move a particular motor. For example, if I want to simply move the z-motor, Cura will not respond.

You can set the temp up to 15 degrees lower than max temp in the Configuration.h file. You have to make a custom Marlin build. So if you want 310C to be the max set the max temp in the Configuration.h file to 325C and then rebuild Marlin.
Thank you for the quick reply... I am not too familiar with the process of "rebuilding" Marlin. Are there any good internet resources I should check out pertaining to this?

Hello everyone,
I have a printrbot printer, and I want to print material that has a melting point above 300 C. I bought a micron3dp extruder to print at such temperatures, but how do I alter the firmware to accept temperatures higher than 300 C? For instance, when I enter a temperature value above 300 C, the software will immediately revert the entered value back to 300.
Any insight?
Initiating Motors to Home Positions Works... Moving the Motors Individually does not
in UltiMaker Cura
Posted
Hello all,
I have a printrbot metal plus... Through Cura, I have been trying to make sure all of the motors move the way I want them to. If I press the home-y button, the y-motor works flawlessly. If I press the home-x button, the x-motor works flawlessly. However, for example, if I press the individual y+ or y- buttons, there is no movement whatsoever.
So, why might the home selection work, and not the individual selections?
