For the purpose of demonstrating the 'problem' I have made a simple test object : a wall 2mm wide, 20mm long and 10mm high dimensions. Test 20x2x10 wall.stl Set the extrusion width (EW) at 0.40 as this should give exactly 5 lines/perimeters to fill the 2mm wall. (2x2 outer perimeters + one single in...

thanks Arno very usefull but I have bat day start last week (friday) also still continues My electronics arduino mega+ramps and I printed SD card (not usb connection) also I used ‘Surge protection - connector strip" my printer stops at random times I changed SD card I changed power supply I di...

Your problem is very likely caused by a communication error. The Creatr has a known problem in what I have referred to as the lack of a ‘Common Grounding’ making the USB very susceptible to noise and electric interference coming from the mains supply. Unfortunately all 3D printers using Marlin Firmw...

I don't believe you have to edit the config file (i could be wrong). I would try Repetier-Host SW first. There is a menu at the top 'Config' and when connected with you printer you will see a drop-down menu 'Firmware EEPROM Configuration'. If not connected, it will be 'grayed out'. This is where you...

So a little more testing. I printed a part and afterwards the left jog problem was there. I hit disconnect in the software, turned the printer off, and unplugged the usb cable from the computer. I waited 60 seconds, hooked everything back up and hit connect in Creater. Without turning any heaters o...

Arno, Power supply noise due to grounding may be an issue. However I would think if that was the case the problem would go away when the heaters are turned off. (I'll have to double check that this evening.) Thanks. Just as an FYI, I am not aware of any past or current firmware issues in the Marlin...

See my posting on the http://creatrtips.freeforums.org/common-ground-problem-in-creatr-design-t128.html as what you experiencing is most likely not a firmware problem, however a noise problem on your USB signals and board caused by a common ground problem. This also explains why it happens more ofte...

I also have a Creatr connected with S3D ver 2.0.1 and do not see the problems you have experienced on the Jog Controls. I have double checked and no problems what so ever. As there are many problems possible with the serial interface and the drivers I would be tempted to believe that this is where y...
