My first idea: Check the tightness of the big bolt that holds the two white gears and one roller. As I recall, if too loose the rollers don't turn properly. I also seem to remember that if too tight things don't turn at all.
I hope this helps.

Re: The Rambo is connected but..
My H1.1, Rambo, Repetier setup was behaving similar to what you describe. Turned out I did not have the USB driver installed. John installed it and things started working properly. This was in person - I don't know where you can find the driver.

Re: Hello from a newbie with a query..
Hi William, I ordered a RAMBo board with my printer kit. This board is not the one described in the instructions I have. (I assume you have the same directions.) My board works very well, without any hardware modification. I'm using 4 axis (X,Y,Z, extruder), but it also has circuitry for a 2nd Z mot...

Another Printer Online!
I did my first print last night. The nickel test thing actually kinda almost looks like it should – Imagine That! There is still a fair amount of tweaking to do, but I think this will be a successful project. A Big Thanks to John for fixing some software at a critical point in the project. I’d had e...

Re: Newbie Build Questions
Hi folks, I’m also at this point in the build – mounting switches, running wires, and wondering how the software will play with all this. I’m not so good at C programming, but I did venture a look at the Marlin/Rambo firmware. In the mechanical settings section of configuration.f there is a place to...

Greetings from Indiana
I’ve known about 3D printing for a while now, but it took a big push from work to really look into it. We needed prototype housings for fit-up test and I discovered that you can get an entire printer for less than the price of making these housings outside! After a few referrals I ended up on the se...
