The new belts are now in, the little Fisher is back to perfect prints!

I've noticed that I'm having to print higher temps now. I run "0" in the slicer, then manually set the temp as required, it was 210, when I started, I'm now running 245/250!

I've had a quick look, it appears to be 19v and 60W, can't find anything!

Any advice, please.

Cheers Jim

It's more likely to be a problem with the thermistor. Check that the wires are not shorting against the heater block.
