Ive recently started using Simplify 3D with our MakerBot Z18 printers. I'm running into a temperature issue.
My extruder became jammed after attempting to print at 180C. I have attempted to change the temperature back to 215C many times with no luck. I'm not sure where this temperature is even coming from because i have not been able to locate it in the settings.
Whats going on here?
Any input is greatly appreciated.

Re: Makerbot Z18. Temperature over ride issues?
Can you post the factory file and .makerbot file up here for your setup?BobcatPrints wrote:Ive recently started using Simplify 3D with our MakerBot Z18 printers. I'm running into a temperature issue.

**Also as a note, using the Machine Control Panel (Tools-->Machine Control Panel) with 5th generation machines, not all commands are supported. In the setup guide there's a picture with red boxes around the commands that work with the 5th gen machines.

If you go to File-->Save Factory File As, then post that file, it will include your 3D models and FFF settings.

I would recommend going to Help-->Reset All Settings, then restarting the program. It looks like in your profile you've changed the Extruder Identifier from Tool 0 to Tool 1 and for Temperature tab from Tool 0 to Tool 1 as the Temperature Identifier.BobcatPrints wrote:Heres the factory file
After going to Help-->Reset All Settings, try restarting the program and changing your settings/running a print.
