@joostttbosman I am sorry to read that you are experiencing issues with your print. I cannot access the picture you shared. In order to better understand what is going on it would help if you could share a picture of the failed print. 

 

Best regards,

 

Jos

a cold pull is usually done with whatever filament you have been using, so briefly you remove the Bowden tube, heat the head to higher than usual temp, hand push filament through the nozzle, set the temperature to a low temp (for PLA about 95degrees), then pull out the filament - it should remove any stuck filament from inside the nozzle.

 

It can be helpful to use a different color filament for this process as you may then see the removed stuck filament

I can't seem to push any material trough on the low temperature, and it also doesn't look like my cold filament is melting. And it also doesn't feel warm to the touch. Here is a picture of the nozzle, I think it looks completely clogged.

Thanks, I'll try that I put the temp too high. I also don't have any other filament so ill have to keep trying until it prints good, ill let you know.

I would guess that the nozzle needs cleaning, I would try a cold pull of the nozzle

 

good luck

How can I do a cold pull if I don't have any cleaning filament

And when you asked the class who did it - did they respond something like this?

Hahaha I want to thank him the person who did this spared me a lot of work.

Last Friday, my prints were very good. But when I came back today, I can't seem to get 1 good print. I think it's because my nozzle is printing to thin.

How can I fix this?

Your print head is mounted backwards. Remove it by unclipping the rods that go through the print head from the sliding blocks and rotate the head 180 degrees.

Thank you very much. This is a school printer, someone must have messed it up. This will be an easy grade on my exam!

Here are some pictures of my problem. My Hotend is behind the buildplate, so I can't configure the buildplate

Hey, I am trying to fix a printer and I came across a problem.

 

I wanted to configure the build plate, but found out the nozzle is off the bed.

And when I print a design, it does not print it in the middle.

 

So I think the hot end is not centered on my Ultimaker2+

 

Does anybody know a solution.
