    Was having this trouble also. Mine appeared to be from filament grinding in the back of the printer. After getting the error I upped my temperature by 15% and lowered my speed by 15% and have not had a problem since.

    I dropped the overall print speed by 5mm/s and added 5 degrees C. That worked for me. And yes the humidity here in wisconsin has been destroying my PVA and Nylon.

    Did you have coasting on for this print?
  4. willryan3
    I have been using this. It seems to work pretty well but will kick out an ER999 code so just know that is what it is from.

    Experiencing a similar problem. I was running too high of a speed and too low of a temp so the material was getting clogged. Also I have found that upon loading, right when you feel the gripper click the next step on the screen to load the material in. It could be pushing to hard on the nozzle.

    I have been receiving this error a lot since the new firmware update. Could be coincidental but not sure what more to do about it.

    I get this code when using the "change at Z" g code mod. Does not seem to bother too much.

    Interesting. I am assuming there are no roundabouts for the setting (on Cura)? I was getting good prints with it but I should be able to make a few retraction changes to get the same results. Thank you, I appreciate the response.

    That was it. Any idea why it does that? Appreciate the help

    Still having troubles figuring out why there are columns of no filament in some spots. Is this a conversion to STL issue or an issue with my cura? Thanks in advance.

    In your support settings you can toggle your support placement from everywhere to just touching buildplate.

    Thank you! I will look into it and give it a try.

    I am in the same boat. I had a lot of trouble with the PVA and switched back.
  14. willryan3
    PVA actually becomes more brittle upon water absorption. Try drying it out and keeping it dry when you are not using it.

    Though it appears to be "solved" in cura, the print came out very uneven and blemishy. Any other ideas?

    Also found that "Outer Wall Inset" of .2mm is very effective. Not exactly sure what it does but here is the difference.

    Thank you all those who helped! After using coasting, moving tower closer and a few other tweaks the part turned out great. Appreciate it, Will

    I downloaded a piece off of thingiverse and have noticed these gaps after slicing. I have been trying a variety of things but believe I had the most success with horizontal expansion. Anyone else have any tips on why this happens? Could it just be the model I downloaded could have been drawn and extruded differently? Thanks in advance, Will

    Would recommend getting a thin pin or needle, heating up the nozzle, and trying to poke away some of the debris. They have kits on amazon for fairly cheap.
  20. willryan3
    Sounds great. I will give that a try. Thanks
  21. willryan3
    Good idea, I did not know you could do that. Thanks!
  22. willryan3
    Will try with and without. Keep you posted

    Upping my retraction settings now. As far as the prime tower I was using it to prevent these strings but if I get my retraction down does that eliminate the need for the prime tower?
  24. willryan3
    Thank you for your response. I have been using the PrintDry oven and heating at its' highest temp for 4 hours prior to a print with it. As far as storing I use the same bag it came in with a few silica packs. Would a material like this need to be concealed during the print also? My area for printing has a humidity between 20-30%. Thanks Will

    Agreed, have been using solidworks and was not familiar with any options. Having the same troubles so commenting for notifications lol
