If the thermistor is reading higher than the thermocouple, I would think it's the other way around, it's clogging because it's too cold. Even though I am adjusting my slice temp to match the desired measured temp? So measured by my previous method, I thought I was heating to 246 but by my new ...

Just an update on my temperatures. I attempted to measure my temps as Nylocke suggested however, I was unable to get my thermocoupler far enough into the nozzle. That being the case the Prometheus V2 has a hole just under the thermistor hole. Figured this to be a good place to measure temp and my ...

I am running a Prometheus V2. It didn't call for any thermal paste on assembly so I haven't used any. I will check to see if I have any laying around. I will also make sure it is making good contact with the heater block. I am thinking of switching to a threaded thermistor as well. Fan is still ...

Ok. I will see if I can get it to feed into my hot end to see what it reads. I am printing the PetG at 246 by meter measurements taken where the heater block meets the nozzle. But that means my hot end is set at 265. So if I have been measuring incorrectly and my temp is actually closer to 265 then ...

Ok... So I stopped by at lunch to check the print and found it had failed again. But it provided a little more insight. I no longer believe this to be a feed issue. Thanks to your extruder design it didn't start coming out the side and just chewed through the filament instead. This confirmed it is ...

I can certainly see how yours is an improvement, especially with soft filaments. The filament pretty much has no choice but to go into the bowden tube. lol. Judging by the tightness in the curl of wasted filament I had, I believe it was curling under the cogged gear as it continued to extrude then ...

Nylocke, your plate printed like a champ. I did have to dremel out a little bit more space for the cogged gear and make room for the set screw as you mentioned. It hugs the gear perfectly, sitting perfectly flush against it. I am trying to print the hilt again, so fingers crossed it is successful ...

You could try using my original design strapped to the adapter plate glacian designed. The hobbed gears are the same diameter abouts, though you might have to shave some material off so the set screw doesn't interfere with the extruder body. I haven't tried this before but things should align and ...

Are you using Glacian's design for the EZflex? I've noticed it has an issue where the hobbed gear isn't hugged as tight by extruder body as it should and the idler bearing sticks out a bit too far too, so theres a lot of space that filament can slip out of. I've had this problem with Ninjaflex, but ...

Ok... So I have had this happen to me a few times now. I have tried to search the forum but must not be using the correct wording to find any similar posts. Originally I thought this was because of clogged nozzle. Now I am thinking not so much. I started a print last night before bed but woke up to ...

Awesome! Thank you. I will make those changes and should be good to go.

What is probably going on is there are hard temp limits in the firmware, one for min temp and one for max temp, and if the thermistor reads outside of these ranges it considers the thermistor to be defective or nonexistent. You probably changed the max temp that you can set to be outside of this ...

Ok ladies and gents... I need your assistance. I have a Prometheus V2 currently installed and have been having problems with my hot end heating above 270. Everything appears to be working properly until the temperature hits about 272 then the printer goes into a dry run and the temp settings on the ...

Ok my bad. I was thinking backwards... but if I adjust my Zero point then I will also have to adjust my horizontal radius after, correct?

Ok thanks. I will recalibrate it again. it is probably my horizontal radius setting so i will adjust everything again and see if that fixes it.

I appreciate the help.

It looks to me like your Z zero point is off a bit. The first layers shouldn't have that big of a gap between filament tracks. The support may not be sticking to the bed. g. I appreciate the help guys. Gene... do you think it needs to be adjusted lower or higher? I calibrated it using a feeler ...

For the most part my prints are coming out well, but i am having problems recently regarding supports. They are coming out like a tangled mess, mainly on fine printed layers of .100 mm. Any ideas what could be causing this and what I should change setting wise. I know i have some retraction issues ...
