i bought an easythreed k9 3D printer to start learning how to use these machines at a beginner level. i ordered a hot bed for it and it should be here in 2 weeks or so. my issue is after my first couple of unsuccessful prints. i started using my USB cable to send prints to machine from CURA. it heats the head up to 230 and then makes a few moves but then slides the build plate all the way out and the head all the way toward the corner. and sits. it will not print anything i send to it but the progress bar in CURA loads percentage of the job as if it was printing. even when i try to insert the TF card with same or different Gcode and manually hit the print button it just moves the head up in increments. before i could hit the print button and the light would blink and it would start printing a few seconds after. now the light is on solid. anyone have an idea what i could be doing wrong ?? all help is appreciated. apologize in advanced if this is a rookie question, im new to the 3D printing world!!

    Sorry to hear your having issues.. but it sounds like you should reach out to the community for easythreed.. this does not sound much like a UltiMaker Cura issue.. unless their profile is just wrong.

    but only if i save to tf card from the easyware slicer. if i save it via CURA to tf card and put it in and hit print it does the same thing as the sending from CURA via usb
