**What is the problem?**I was looking into setting up octoprint for my new xinkebot. I do not see support for my xinkebot orca 2 sygnus.
What did you already try to solve it? I was told to try support for a printer close to mine. The G max 1.5 is close but do not see support for it either.
Additional information about your setup (OctoPrint version, OctoPi version, printer, firmware, octoprint.log
, serial.log
or output on terminal tab, ...)
any updates?
I want to buy this printer and use it with octoprint =)
No, I believe it can be done easy enough. I have several hobbies going at once and have to divide my money between them. So the OctoPrint has not been purchased yet. Maybe next month. ....... I do love this printer. After watching people on YouTube have to repair their new printer on a weekly basis I decided to try to get something more dependable. I have emptied four spools. No problem so far. (hatchbox PLA, hatchbox wood, Xinkebot PLA, eSun Pro PLA and 1/2 spool Lodesighn TPU)
I am really liking this eSun Pro. It gives cleaner stronger prints. The only down side I have found with the eSun pro is that it seems to show scratches more.
Just watch the something-infused filaments. I ran three spools through my hotend of carbon fiber—infused PLA and the throat of the nozzle was literally eaten away; I had to replace the nozzle. And unless you're familiar with the incremental symptoms of this, you might think that something else is going on.
Thanks for the warning. I found extra nozzles on Amazon fairly cheap. I think they were around 5 for $8. At that price I can replace them every month or after using harsh filament. I replaced one already. It clogged because I was running too cold. I cleaned it out but I guess I did not do a good job. After fooling with it for 20 minutes I just tossed it and put a new one in.
Just heat it up to about 220 and it ought to ooze itself back to normal.
Hi i got the printer and set up octoprint
i'm trying my first print, and for some reason the hot end is not heating up
even when i tried to use the preheat plug in , as soon as the print starts the target drops!
any help?
I remember having the same problem at first. I was using Cura to slice with and forgot sometimes in the Cura settings. I had to go back and go over the setting information sent on the SD card that came with the printer. The second time that the problem occurred I had forgot to reattach The extruder cable after swapping extruders.
