Configuring Printer Settings
January 13, 2014 03:16PM
Hi,

I just got an Ecksbot 3D printer. Unfortunately I am having trouble configuring the printer settings.

The printer settings option under the configure menu is only avalable when the printer is not connected. I can change the settings at that point but they are reset when I connect the printer.

I am able to change the extruder tempurature on the manula control panel but once I run the print job the tempurature resets and the printer waits for it to cool back to 200 before starting.

Has anyone else had this problem? I could really use some help.

Thanks,
-Isaac

Your manual temperature is not relevant if your slicer adds temperature settings on it's own, which is the default. That is what you see.

Prevent slicer from setting a temperature or set the temperature also to 200. It is in th filament settings in Slic3r. There you define the temperature and 0 is "do not set" all oths are set.
