Replicator 2 starting position
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2019 10:22 pm
Totally new to this whole 3D printing thing. A friend gave me a replicator 2 to play with, and I'd gotten frustrated with MakerBot Print. Thought I'd try out something a bit more developed.
This is a starting question for the community, and forgive my lack of knowledge.
When my print starts it exudes a blob in the far left forward corner before initiating the actual print. That seems like it's can't be the right start and it definitely doesn't lead to a good initial layer.
With MakerBot print it would lay down a line across the front of the bed from right to left. I'm wondering if somehow I'm not setting up something and it should be moving when starting out.
Suggestions?
