stopped printing

Post by psd » Sun Dec 25, 2016 5:04 am

Help.
My M2 stopped printing. The extruders and bed heat up and work well.
Controls work.

When I send a model to print in Simplify3D it starts sending the code and then nothing happens.
Both on USB and SD card.
It does say sent M150 frequently, not sure if it did this before.
I tried many models and other profiles but couldn't get it to print.

Then I tried an old model saved on the SD card and it started again.
But I cant get it to start with a new print.

Seems like its a S3D problem but cant get the thing to print

Can you post your FFF profile or a factory file? Go to File, then Export FFF, then zip up the file and post it here. You might have accidentally fudged something in your S3D setup.

Are you able to extrude using the Jog Controls in S3D?

I got it printing again, it may have been due to a loose connector power into electronics compartments
Thanks all.

I have had the same happen to me, and it took awhile to figure out. I wish the connector had a locking connector instead of a push in
