Posted · Cura Output issues

I have an Ender 3 and I am new at this. M problems seem to have stated after I Modified my Ender 3 with the Extruder Direct Drive Modification.

Here is my list:

1. The Cura 4.1 Sliced output has an extension of .gz. (I think I have solved this by trying  one of your experts Solutions), This also happened on the Cura 4.0.

2. When I go to my Ender 3 to print my Object the Extruder heats to 200 degrees F, but the Plate remains cold. When the Printer begins the Extruder 'Z' direction does not move. By the way, just to check my installation of the Direct Drive modification I successfully printed a .gcode file produced before I started any of this. Also, all these problems seem to happen whether I  use Cura 4.0 or Cura 4.1.

 

If this an be solved, I would like to use Cura 4.1 regardless of its issues. I know they will be fixed.

 

This is a wonderful Community of Experts and I DO appreciate the help.

      • 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.
