Not sure if anyone still checks this thread, but i just recently started to get my Migbot Prusa i3 back up and running. I had the frame break on me during a move, and just never got around to fixing it. So last night i finally got it calibrated, and ready to print a test cube, when during the homing process, and binder clip slipped off the build plate, and got stuck between the "y"carriage, and tby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
QuoteAccidentalWisdom QuoteSort of, you have them plugged into the wrong ports on the board, make sure they're plugged into the minus X and minus Y, I have a feeling you've plugged them into the positive X and Y.. Sorry wasn't concentrating much above, no firmware jigging needed,. Entirely possible, haha. I will check that when I get home tonight. Thanks for your help, I will post back either waby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
so after beating my head against the wall with this for the last few days i found the problem. The power supply is only outputting roughly 8.5 amps, i didnt think that it could be the power supply because it is only about a month old, but i was wrong.by kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
I NEED HELP!!!! OK so i started having issues with my migbot prusa i3. I thought the power supply that came with my kit had just crapped out, so i ordered a replacement, when it came in i hooked it up and in the process of heating everything to do a test print the LED on the power supply started to blink. Unhooked everything and found it to only happen while trying to heat the bed. I figured it wby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
i am somewhat of a newbie still to 3d printing so i have to ask, when you guys are talking about your config file, how are you accessing it? I have the Arduino IDE but how do you find out what your settings are on your printer? When my printer is hooked up, and i open Arduino, i select the board, but have no idea how to see what the settings are. I would like to be able to edit them, because likeby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
OK, problem solved, it was a bad connection at the extruder, it just happened to work when i would move the motor, then quit working when i replaced it. QuotegatorNic I suppose its possible it could be firmware, but honestly I don't think firmware just stops working unless the whole board gave out. Since it works on the x-axis we know the motor works. It's possible the E0 stepper on the boardby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
Can you post the original Migbot firmware, they are not replying to my emailsby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
If it was the board, wouldn't it do it everytime? I just got home and gave it another try, extruded 30mm of filament with no problem, started a print, it started almost immediately and the screen is a jumbled againby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
I have had this printer for roughly 5-6 months, and it has worked pretty well since i got it, until yesterday. So yesterday i started a print before i left for work, when i got home i had a mess, somewhere along the print something went wrong and the print had shifted to the rear by quite a bit (20-30mm) but the print continued and finished. I tried printing something last night, and when theby kissfan4 - Prusa i3 and variants
