Ok, so I bought an Anet A8 which has been working for a few hours correctly, and I was able to print some models accurately. But then suddenly it stopped working. In the middle of a PLA printing, the panel became blue and there was an acute sound coming from the area of the power supply. I had to re…

I’ll try that, but that means that it won’t do any retraction if the movement is < 3 - 5 mm, correct?

I mentioned it at the original message: I’m printing this PLA at 200C with the hot bed at 60C.

It is stuck, sometimes becoming part of the piece, others quite stuck so I had to use a knife, and others can be removed easily. I’ve seen the head moving them along when hitting them back once it has to print again on that area, since the residue is typically taller than the height of the layer. I…

My hypothesis is that some of the PLA got accumulated on the nozzle and that’s what got overheated and at some point dropped on the model. Could it be that I’m printing too slowly? I’ll try to print faster next time, although I only have about a meter of this PLA now.

I’m using Cura as the software slicer, with the gcode file stored to the sd card and then mounting the sd card on the printer (the computer is on another room). I’ll pay more attention next time to see if the head stops, but until know I haven’t noticed that effect. I configured retraction for a min…

Hi there, I just mounted my Anet A8 printer and made the first models to improve it (filament guide, new nozzle fan adapter, etc). For these pieces I used the provided white PLA that comes with the printer. Everything is working great, at exception of a bunch of brown residues that appears in the m…
