My Hardware is a FolgerTech 2020 Prusa i3 with a reprapdiscount hexagon 1.75mm hotend. I am having problems heating up with both regular Repetier and OctoPrint. Attached is the temperature graph from my OctoPrint. Any help would be great. My temperature never had this problem before. Thanks, Zachby zarnold16 - General Mendel Topics

Quotetherippa Has anyone thought about making an enclosure for this printer? It heats up my office a lot when printing ABS. Maybe we could make it a group project? Im all for this.
