10.1.1 Printing Problems

Clicking sound from one of the stepper motors

One of your stepper motors may not be connected properly. Check each connection and then

inspect the cable routing for any faults

File not printing

Remove the Micro SD Card and insert into your Computer. Open the GCODE file using a text editor

(eg. Notepad), and inspect if GCODE is readable or not. If file consists of multiple ‘ÿÿÿÿ’ symbol,

then file has been corrupted. Try reformatting your Micro SD Card and reloading the GCODE file.

NOTE: Reformatting will delete all files on your SD card

Not extruding when starting to print

Ensure that the nozzle temperature has been set to match your material
