I would format this as an equation, but I'm getting this error: "Failed to parse (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex, dvips, gs, and convert): \frac{Expected_{stepspermm}}{Actual_{stepspermm}} = \frac{Expected_{distanceTraveled}}{Actual_{distanceTravel}}"

There are other pages with equations that works fine, but if I change anything from the exact equation they have, it no longer displays. Wikipedia says this: "To have math rendered in a particular MediaWiki installation, one has to set $wgUseTeX = true; in LocalSettings.php." -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

Here's the equation I'm trying to get to display:

<math>V_{max} = k(T_{HotEnd}-T_{softening})</math>

Sorry for the trouble. --Macon 23:08, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
