Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

I was just browsing around the print troubleshooting guide they have on this site, it covers quite a few issues. If you find that the extrusion multiplier is not the issue, go to the "other" tab and take a look at the horizontal size compensation setting. You can use that to scale up/down ...

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

Good to hear that you got things working. I'm not sure about the scaling, but you can adjust the extruder multiplier until you achieve the correct dimensions. Sounds like it's close though, maybe bump it up to 1.01 or 1.02, print, and adjust up/down from there. You may also want to fix the extruder ...

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

Here's a factory file that hopefully contains 2 processes, one for the left and one for the right, both for PLA temps/settings. The only real difference beyond the choice of extruder is one line in the startup script, which apparently controls the extruder motor during the initial pass (I'll look mo...

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

The settings and gcode I gave you were for ABS: 100C for the bed and something like 225C for the right extruder. My current setup has the left extruder using PLA and the right extruder using ABS. That may be different from your setup. I had quite a few profiles set up when I started and then s3d cra...

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

I've attached a factory file and test print set up for ABS on the right extruder.

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

The 190C is probably fine. I played around with anything from 195-220 and didn't see a huge difference, but these were not challenging prints. I did go into the qidi gcode file and calculated the amount of material extruded per distance, and compared with the s3d file, they were within 10% of each o...

Re: Version 4.0 on Linux "Crashes"

I run Arch as well. That "+Stopped" business means that your process has been backgrounded. Run "ps aux | grep Simplify3D" and you're likely to find 50 instances running if you spent some time playing with this (like I did). Just "sudo killall -9 Simplify3D" to close al...

Re: Qidi X-Pro Amazon review with potentially useful setting

I'm the guy who posted the review on Amazon. I've attached an fff file that should get you going. Also, another person was asking about wifi access. To connect your printer to your network, create a text file containing : M9003 '"SSID","PASSWORD"' , where SSID/PASSWORD are used t...
