Just so everyone knows: the problem was a loose connetion with the usb jack on the pcb board. I solved it by placing masking tape all around the connection and no it does not disconnects anymore Adrianby adrianec - Reprappers
Sam, no resend messages at all, only it just freezes. I you hit the connect button, mesage sayin: ¨Could not connect to printer"by adrianec - Reprappers
It does not build any additional heat since the cabinet is properly ventilatedby adrianec - Reprappers
Martin, thank you for your suggestions I will try and let you know the results. So you think the Windows XP software may not have anything to do with the Pronterface freezing? Adrianby adrianec - Reprappers
I have a Makergear Prusa with an Arduno Mega 2560. It was printing fine until I built a wooden housing for it. Now it keeps disconnecting from the PC, some times at a middle of a print. Actually it wont run for more than 1 hour without tilting. Pronterface freezes and I cannot do anything but close the program, unplug the USB connection, plug agin, restart. Any one have an idea what the problemby adrianec - Reprappers
