Printing problems with UM3 firmware to 4.3.2

Posted (edited) · Printing problems with UM3 firmware to 4.3.2

I just updated to 4.3.2 yesterday on my UM3 Extended and now I'm having multiple issues.

 

1) Printer is under-extruding badly

2) Build plate now takes forever to heat up

3) Firmware heats automatically to 60c before the gcode tells it to only be at the temp I assigned

4) After a print is aborted it wants to clear both cores, but I'm only using one. So, I have to wait for it to heat up core 2 and retract nothing before it will continue. I skip through this, but shouldn't have to. I don't know what it would do after completing a print as I haven't gotten that far yet.

5) After aborting print core 1 doesn't retract at all

 

Anyone else having issues or have an idea as to what is going on? Are any of these changes planned for some reason?

I didn't pay attention to what version I had before so don't know what to roll back to. I do see lots of people rolling back to 3.7.7 when they have firmware issues so I'm about to try that myself......

    Well, running 3.7.7 didn't change anything. 

    The only other thing I know I did before was directly after upgrading to 4.3.2 I tried to run a print using CURA to see if I'd like it any more than before. I've been using S3D with great success but thought I'd give it a try. Is there something that could have changed by trying to use CURA after that firmware upgrade?

    I really need some help here as this is currently a giant paperweight.......

        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.
