When selecting 'Home', all three axis's go to there home position.
Now, the Z axis is depressing the Z end stop.
After leveling the bed and sending a print to the printer, the Z axis once again depresses the Z end stop.
Therefore, only the X and Y axis's are working and the Z axis is grinding away at the heated bed.
No matter how many times the bed is leveled, the Z axis depresses the Z end stop

U8glib is installed in /Arduino/Libraries.
Checked the error below at Arduino forum.
Suggested to change board to 'Arduino AVR Boards'.
Did not do it!

Arduino 1.8.5, Tools, Port, reads COM14.
How to change to port COM8 and where?
Was told not to change configuration h.

No yellow marks.
Changed config h back to '0'.
Below are the error messages when sending to printer.

Completed the above.
Device Manager list the printer on COM14.
As does Arduino.
TH3D-Marlin-1.1.* compiles OK. Can not connect to printer. No serial port.
TH3D list the port as '0' in config h. Changing to '14' did not help.
Any ideas on how to solve this?

W10, Device Manager does not recognize Ender 3.
Having no luck finding a driver.
Please help.

Thank you for replying.
Do not understand.
The firmware download from Crealty is suppose to be 'stock'.
If so, all firmware needed should be included.
Anyway, found a site that demonstrates how to add bootloader and flash firmware.
However, the problem is, the printer is not working at the present.
I need it ASAP. Any ideas on where to find the 'stock' firmware for an Ender 3?

When verifying the latest Ender 3 firmware from GitHub, the following error occurs:
Exit status 1
Error Oops! Make sure you have Sanguino selected from the tools menu.
However, there is no Sanguino listed.

Improvements.
One on left printed @ 255 x 60c.
One in middle @ 240 x 60c.
One on left @ 230 x 60c.
I think my problem might be solved at 230 x 60c or maybe even lower.
However, a bigger problem is the filament does not stick to bed until the third layer and then it peels up and makes a mess as shown in all three of the above.
Once past that, the print is better but has 'sections'. How are these

Printed a temperature tower, 260 - 220c; and it looked bad from top to bottom.
Will start over. level bed with nozzle. Start first print at 200c, then up or down.
Will keep you posted.

What is causing this 'fuzz'? See attached photo.
PETG @ 255 nozzle and 80 bed temps.
New .04 nozzle.
Gcode used was Cura 3.4.1.
Any ideas appreciated.

A newb to Portland RUG.
I'm dlw, live in Amboy, WA.
Currently designing a core xy 3d printer, also a CNC on the back burner.
The 3d printer frame is designed but not yet constructed due to any changes needed.
Started printing and proofing the objects for the core xy system. See attached.
Using an Ender 3 for printing set at 255 nozzle, 80 bed temps for PETG.
Fusion 360 for designing.

Thank you for replying.
Since this does not have a read me or setup file, how are they installed?
I am learning to cipher this week, spelling is next week.

W10 does not recognize the Ender 3.
Control panel shows no port settings of any kind.
Does anyone know how to solve this.

The LCD now reads 'def' in both nozzle and bed temp.
Tried to figure it out but not successful.

W10, Fusion 360, Tronxy P802, PETG. 235c, 70c.
See attached.
The wall of this piece is to be 20.
The printer keeps trying to print, however, the extruder stops extruding.
Any ideas on how to correct this?

Using Repetier Host v0.92 with Cura slicer.
This was printed at 250c.
I'm wondering if the print speed is too fast to cover the infill properly.
If so, how is the print speed controlled?
Or, suggestions on this will be appreciated.
How is support controlled?
I have watched several videos on Youtube and none go into specifics.

Using Fusion 360, Repetier Host with Cura Slicer, Tronxy P108.
First time using PETG. See attached photo. Are the settings too hot, too cold, layers too thin.
Bed @ 70c, Nozzle @ 215c as suggested by supplier.

Slic3r is the slicer. Using Pronterface to print. See attached.
The bed and nozzle heat to 70 and 215.
Using the micro SD, send gcode to SD, nothing happens, the extruder never moves.
Using Pronterface, the Print button never lights up. I also have little experience with Pronterface outside of tutorials on Youtube.

Cura will not connect! The com port is listed as 13 everywhere I check.
Using Repetier 0.92. Problem is; no success at setting the feed rate for the filament.
The test resulted in 100/45. Used Prontorface to try to change it. The multiplier rate is at 5 and no change.
The extruder gear seems to be doing OK. No skipping. No tension of the filament. Filament spool moves freely.

Good News! See attached video.
Using a micro SD card to print.
At least we know it will print.
Noisy, as of now I do not mind.
Haven't check feed rate.
Need to lower nozzle a bit

In Cura 15.04.6 Select File Machine Settings Click Using Cura 3.4.1
In the Machine Settings for your 3D Printer Select your com port. (Auto does not find com port on my machine)
No com port settings in Machine Settings.
In case com port not listed
In the Device Manager Right click your 3D Printer com port13 Select Properties in drop down box.
Select the Port Settings Tab.
Click Advanced Button

Repetier version 0.92.
The Y end stop cable was defective. Replaced it. Solved the Y problem.
The obvious problem now is connecting to Cura or other like software.
The current com port is 13. See attached.
How is Cura 3.4.1 set to com port 13.
I have not been able to find it. Solving this may be all that is needed.
Re-leveled the bed, Z axis and the bed and extruder heats OK.

If you or anyone else is willing to help, I will keep trying.
When 'homing' the Y axis, heat bed, moves about 10mm forward and stops. It will not go toward the rear or return to its home position.
Uploaded 'configuration.h', someone said there was nothing wrong with it; that it should work.
Any help appreciated.

Could not get it connected to any software such as Cura, Repetier, Meshmixer. nor Fusion 360.
Would not accept a SD card.
I'm also not willing to buy any more main boards. This one was the third.
Thanks for your help.
