Printer Disconnects And Not Reconnect During Printing Issue
August 24, 2013 03:32PM
I have been having an issue. It has cropped up in the last two days.
The part will start printing, print for ~45 minutes, then just cut out. The printer head stops. Printer Interface says that the part is printing, but does not change. The table and head remain at temperature. This is really dangerous as the head could start a fire if it is left just sitting there. I have some models I would like to photograph, but I don't have a camera. The ABS pulled itself back to the head and made a large blob sticking to the nozzle.

I have a 10' USB cable to connect to the printer. I now have an 8' cable. I am thinking of getting a soft iron shield on it too

Any ideas on this sort of issue?
