I had the same issue. I sent an email to support@simplify3d.com and they reset everything.

Actually, when you take the gcode done at the end of the job: G92 E20 ; set filament length for retraction G1 E0 F10200 ; retract filament for easy removal it isn't really that much (effectively 10 mm of priming - since the prime does 30mm of advancement and the end of the job does 20mm of retraction)

If you're losing steps, then your firmware may be trying to accelerate too quickly, or it may simply be trying to move faster than your mechanicals can move.
You could try lowering the feed rate (the F4800) 4800 mm/min corresponds to 80 mm/sec

As you said s3d doesnt print infill every layer but looking at your print, you have something else going on there where it looks like your stringing between. My infill looks nothing like that. I have solid extrusions for each line and looks more like the cura print. Maybe your temps are a little hi...

Even with random starts turned off, the infill isn't as strong as say the infill done by Cura.

In Cura, it prints both angles on every layer.

Here's a photo which shows the difference. On the left, Cura with 20% infill, on the right Simplify3D with 20% infill.

In my setup, after the extruders have heated up, I have this:

Code: Select all

G92 E-30    ;reset filament position for priming
G1 F200 E0  ;prime extruder

(for my Bukito)

In Windows, you can create shortccuts.

I don't have a Creatr, so I'm not sure what the most common causes for this might be. So what I'm going to say is generic advice, and applies pretty much to all types of CNC style machines. If it shifts and stays shifted, then I'd guess that you're missing steps. Which could be caused by binding som...

See this thread over here: http://forum.simplify3d.com/viewtopic.p ... 1544#p5852 to see if that helps.

This part is designed to be laid down, so that the top of the cross box goes against the table. Then you'll find it prints alot faster. So the pitol grip part will stick up in the air.
