It does have a teflon tube about 65mm long and when doing the clean I did notice one end was a bit fuzzy. I have a 25mm fan that sitby 4xjbh - General

Printrun / Pronterface Processing - 13 years ago
I am using pronterface to print my stl files after they have been sliced with slicer. I am finding after opening the gcode and hitting print the console scrolls through line after line of data (refer attached), with nothing ever printed, even after reaching the desired temperature. I have let it process for up to an hour, even on small models. It happens on many stl files from different sources.by 4xjbh - Reprappers
