I know the forum isn't that active anymore but it'd be a shame to lose all of the great info everyone has contributed over the years. Wh...

Re: Going back to v4 extruder

Re: M2 Level Help

I'm probably late to the party here but.... Don't take this the wrong way but your frustration is all operator error. It sounds/looks like you have an older model M2 so there's no way you should be using the quick start software. You're trying to use software on a machine it wasn't designed for so t...

Re: Has anyone changed the fan in their power supply?

I can't help you with the specs but I've had the Noctura's in all 3 of my power supplies and I've never had an issue.... well I have to assume they are running because they sure can't be heard.
