Hey everything. Thanks in advance for your time! Project: I’m designing an RC rock crawler and for fun, I want the center drivetrain to be belt driven. With the exception for the driveshafts, I want everything to be 3D printed, including the belt. I know there are other configurations but I want a …

Finally figured it out. Thanks everyone! As it turns out, the download of S3D someone screwed up the default firmware on the Taz printers. Thanks to Lulzbot (and no thanks to S3D who never responded once to me), Lulzbot Support lived up to their reputation and walk walked me through the process to …

I have not yet changed that setting for the first layer but I will this evening when I get home. Outside of the first layer problem, there should still be 3 layers above that and then 4 more layers on the top. I would assume that regardless of that “first layer width” setting being incorrect, I’d t…

Everyone, thanks for the replys. Current word from Lulzbot Support (thus far much better than S3D) is to update the firmware and see if that resolves the issue since the underextrusion/line spacing is only on the top and bottom layers. With some luck, my parts won’t look like kitchen strainers anym…

Thank you for the reply and advice. The issue was occurring at all resolutions, 50 up to 300. I had it set to low just to experiment. The model is fine. I’ve printed it before having used Cura for the past 8 months and I’ve never had issues such as this. The underextrusion is occurring on all print…

I had it set to 50 micron just for a test, I get the same results at 100, 200, and 300 as well. The even weirder part is now Cura is doing this same underextrusion bottom and top layers when it’s worked perfecting since last summer. I’ll contact S3D this evening for their input. Thank you for the …

I was thinking the layer width option was, in essence, the extrusion factor. Now that you point that out, it does make a lot more sensense! lol I’ll double check and test it this evening and update you guys with the results. The only thing that still confuses me though is when I open the same part …

Just purchased Simplify3d to run my Taz 5 printers and I must say, the prints are fantastic HOWEVER for some reason it will not print the first or last layer properly??? In the pictures you can see it’s incomplete and almost looks as if its printing every other row??? Any advice would be greatly app…
