Re: Heated Bed Temp Limit
Only the extruder fan is running but its not directed at the bed. I installed the M2 Dual Extruder Marlin firmware. All the connectors look to be secured tightly.

Heated Bed Temp Limit
Hi All, I recently upgraded my M2 with dual extruders but I have noticed that the bed appears to be struggling to reach 120°C. Prior to installing the dual extruders, this was not an issue. The bed still shows difficulty reaching temp when I am only using one of the two extruders. My printer is runn...

Re: Dual Extruder Upgrade
It took me a few hours. Just take your time and read the directions carefully. After you get the hardware all set up, make sure to check out the wiki link below. This should help you get setup.

Re: Dual Extruder Upgrade
I was able to find some Slic3r settings for the v3b that someone was able to dial in pretty nicely. Do you know of anything similar for the v4 duals?

Re: Dual Extruder Upgrade
Should i reduce the multiplier or increase it? i think it was set to 1.0 in this photo but I was thinking about changing it to 0.95. The z offset is set to 2mm but should i decrease it to 1mm?

Dual Extruder Upgrade
Hi All, I recently upgraded my M2 to the Dual v4 Extruder setup. I'm only using the left nozzle at this time but i noticed a big difference is the print quality using the same Slic3r settings as i was with the older v3b extruder (see picture). I'm fairly certain the bed is properly leveled but i'm n...

Hello All,
I have printed this part twice now with the same issue. Any idea why the top of the print looks so sloppy. I don't think its a leveling issue but i could be wrong. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
