Spencer, I sucessfully completed the filament hack last week. Using an empty modified cartridge to feed the standard filament and a 1-3% full cartridge for tricking the printer. I have a video that I will post maybe this week, but to give you the process so you can try yourself here it is:
1. Insert the 1-3% cartridge and start a print (1-3% is important because the printer will notify that there isnt enough filament to finish the job)
2. Select the checkmark to proceed
3. When the screen says apply glue, remove the cartridge and replace with the hacked cartridge. (dont forget the glue)
4. Select checkmark to proceed (the printer will begin the heatup process and begin the print)
Important to remeber:
1-3% cartridge, hacked cartridge and standard filament all need to be the same material- PLA for instance.
There are a few different ways people have hacked the cartridge, but I chose the simple way. Drill a hole near the bottom of the cartridge at an angle (toward the extruder). This is so you can feed the teflon tube that guides the filament to the extruder thru the cartridge casing (cartridge does come apart for access to the teflon tube which you already know if youve had to fix a jam). Feed the standard filament into this tube up thru the extruder and to the hot end. You will need a spool holder for the standard filament.
One thing I do not know yet is how different colors act. I say this because I was charting temps on the 3D systems filament and they seem to vary a bit and also ran at higher temps than typical. The standard PLA I ran though was right in the middle of the manufacturers recommended temp range, so I was happy about that. I used Inland Neon Green.
Hopefully the video will help clarify if necessary, but feel free to ask questiion if needed.
You are a crimminal person, posting false information. There are more than 500 modules working worldwide … probably you are someone related to 3DS … be careful because I will report you to the authorities
