Hi!
After just one month of printing, my Finder won’t print anymore. When loading the filament, everything is ok, so the nozzle isn’t clogged. But when i start printing, no material comes out. No error or anything, printer is moving normally and “tries” to print.
Any Advice?
Thanks,
Dingeling

Is the extruder making a “dunk…dunk…dunk” noise? If so, you have too small a distance between the nozzle and the print bed. Just try putting a half or full turn on all of the bed adjustment knobs in the anti-clockwise direction while the machine is printing to see if you then see an extrusion.

Email FlashForge tech support. They’re very good.
Hi
It will still look like its loading filament even though the nozzle is clogged, does it to me.
Id take the cover housing off and remove the extruder, fairly easy to do. Cut out any filament you see. Then heat up the hot end and still an Allan key into the slot where the filament goes.
clears any blocks I have, if not you’ll have to remove the nozzle. Flashforge has a YouTube video on it.

Move the bed down and away from the extruder, in other words create a gap and then run a print and see if anything will come out. Nozzle to close can cause this.

THANK YOU guys!
The problem was really, that i had to increase the gap of the print bed.
But how can this happen? I recalibrated it a few days ago, and that didn’t solve the problem. I mean, why has this printer an automatic calibration when it doesn’t work well
