Simplify3D User Forum

Hello All,

Why cant I make this printer print with simplify? IS it that the bed is to close to the extruder? All I get is alot of clicking and the extruder moving across the glass really fast but not laying anything down. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

That sounds like the nozzle is too close to the bed. Have you tried increasing the gcode z-axis offset? Increase that by 0.5mm and then try again (G-Code tab of FFF settings)

Thank you Joe. I did a manual calibration of bed using the ole paper trick and it seems to have helped.
