Troubleshooting from a picture.

Dear All,

 

I recently bought a used Ender 3. 

Since then I changed a thermo sensor (thermal runaway) , the bed (from glass to magnetic), the nozzle (0.4), leveled the bed - probably badly, tightened a pully and the x axis was loose a bit - I fixed that with the eccentric bolt that holds the lower bearing.

So I am new, learning as I go.

 

I am not satisfied with the print quality and I think the problem lies in me. My inability to set up the machine right.

Please take a look at this picture. I think this is the first layer. Big gaps on the print. The plastic is sticking to the bed as you wouldn't believe, it is really difficult to get it off. I am using the filament I bought with the machine, maybe it is bad quality and I have to change that... I don't know.

Can you help me troubleshoot? What should I do to improve print quality?

 

Thank you

Best regards,

 

Robert

      • 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.
