Reflashing doesn't clear the firmware. What's the output of an M503 command?

Re: esun epa question

I personally just used dollar-store white Elmer's glue that you used to use in gradeschool to put glitter on potatoes or whatever.

Re: esun epa question

I did do a search but saw no real answer. Will EPA stick to the polyimide tape of the M2 Build plate, or does it need other things applied? In general, regardless of filament type, when I see reference to glue stick and blue tape, hair spray, abs slurry etc, is this in place of the polymide tape or...

Re: Sudden uphill battle with PETG?

Re: Sudden uphill battle with PETG?

That's why you can buy nozzles by themselves :) For reference, I have 6x M2s, about 600 hours a month of printing -- and I keep 8 SPARE v4 hotends, and 16 nozzles of different sizes (about 60/30/10 0.35/0.5/misc). Most of the nozzles are blowtorched and ultrasonicly...

Re: Printer not working due to mainboard failure?

You *may* have blown a MOSFET, but it's more likely you blew one of the little beige fuses near the power inputs.

If your LCD isn't working, swap cables A & B.
