Posted (edited) · Ender 3 V3 SE doesn't extrude when using Cura, but does when using Creality Slicer

I had just upgraded to v5.6.0 of Cura and added the Ender 3 V3 SE profile, sliced a calibration cube and tried to print it 3 times, but each time everything works except the extruder. However when using the Creality Slicer, everything works fine. I did double check the hotend cable was plugged in, but also it simply works when sliced with Creality's slicer.

 

I didn't make any edits to the Gcode or anything, but I do have other printers I use. But I can't think of anything that would cause this problem. I know the V3 SE works fine with Cura because it works fine on my brothers. Any thoughts would be helpful, thank you.

 

Edit: nvm, I guess the Marlin FW has some kind of "minimum temperature" set in the setting that blocks the extruder. Not sure what number it is, but I raised the temp a lot and it works fine

    I'm not sure about the configuration (probably requires someone more daring or smarter than me to get the configuration file from the motherboard) for the E3V3SE but the default in Marlin is that it won't extrude below 170° if PREVENT_COLD_EXTRUSION is enabled.

     

    You can override it for a print in gcode if you want, but... you probably shouldn't. Lowest I've ever printed was 180° and that was for some dodgy PLA.

        (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.
