Cura cooling fan - can't turn it on

lesthegringo · 2017-02-03T22:03:29.000Z

When printing I have selected ‘fan on above 0.5mm height’ but nothing happens. The fan works because it activates using slic3r, so I know it is not a fan failure

Any idea what may be preventing it from activating it as per the command?

Hi,

You must have an old Cura version, I don’ know if there’s a fan speed percentage in older versions.

If you have a newer version (only thing I use as I’m new to 3d printing), you must check these settings:

Regular Fan Speed > Must be at 100%

Regular Fan Speed at Height > Must be 0.5 mm
