Greetings,

I've been printing with the Anet A8 Reprap Prusa I3 for a couple weeks now. So far so good. until tonight.

Here is a still of the model im printing as shown in Cura-

-notice the large open space circled in red. But wait, during printing somehow a random wall was added-

-notice how now the opening has been covered by a layer witch does not exist in cura. ( the blob in the corner is from the resulting catastrophic failure.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

    Try running the .stl through MakePrintable or some other 3D Print Mesh repair site/application.

    Those type of issues are usually caused by an invalid Mesh (not a closed Manifold) which confuses Cura, and other slicers, as to what's the 'inside' and 'outside' of an object.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
