Cannot Print with Software other than Mattercontrol

Post by srgntforest »

Hello everyone,

I recently finished my Rostock Max V2 Rev. 3 and I'm having a terrible time getting prints to work.

The problem would appear to either be in Configuration.h, or my slicing software.

I have tried Cura, and Simplify3D, but when the print starts, the nozzle crashes in to the build plate, and then starts roaming around in a direction that i am certain is not in the g-code. Also, with Cura and S3D my hotend will not start heating, even though i have the code set to (Temp0).

My setup has a red lcd panel, and Nema 17 motors, i havent changed the motor frequency, the PSU is on 110V for the US, and the Repetier is the stock version from the build manual.

Thank you for any assistance you may provide.

If you type: G28 G0 Z0 F100

Does your hotend hit the glass?

For the temp try: M104 S100 T0


Does it set your hotend temperature to 100c ?
