Sporadic layer height changes during print

Posted · Sporadic layer height changes during print

I hope this is just a one time fluke with my printer that might simply require rebooting it. I always use Standard Quality printing for layer height of 0.2 mm. All my past prints, when I monitor the display, I clearly see the layer height change in increments of 0.2 mm. (o.2, 0.4, 0.6, etc, etc...)

 

Today, I am getting all kind of random layer height changes. The base layer went down as 0.2, but then after that, the layer changes were in increments of 0.24 mm, (0.2, 0.44, 0.68, 0.92, 1.16, 1.4)  but then it's sporadic, and in some cases the layer change is only 0.16 mm. (1.88, 2.08, 2.4, 2.56)

 

I don't believe I selected anything unique in my CURA profile that I haven't been using all along. What might cause this flux in layer height?

 

Thanks you,

Robert

        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.
