- I'm not the neatest or patient of people so the tape on the glass is bubbly.

Second consider getting a reel of wider tape. One can go a full 200mm wide so it is just one strip, but even going to 50mm makes the job a lot easier.

Having wider kapton tape means there is less patience required as it is fewer strips of tape, but it is a lot more difficult to get a 200mm wide one free of bubbles. Even with the wet application method it is rather tricky and I usually have to poke holes in a few bubbles. You only have to do it once, though.
I don't have anything between 200mm and 30mm, maybe 50-ish is the "sweetspot" for ease of application and patience required.

So I'm printing merrily a side panel for a spool holder. It's about halfway through the print. It stops. Then it seems to reset, and start reprinting as if from scratch. There are now awful sounds as it tries to drag the head through the printed output so far... I hit the reset button.
I cleaned it all, and it seems to have not suffered. So I tried again, same panel. Tried through the web interface, nothing happens. Check... seems the file is corrupted, so I upload it again. Now it prints just fine.
I have noticed sometimes I can't see my printer on my LAN.
