Re: Geeetech Prusa i3 Pro W won't lay down first layer, help.

Where did you include it? I can't find the link.
Is the first layer not sticking to the glass? (Did you user adhesives such as hairspray or gluesticks or a extra buildplate? )

Or is the first layer looking like silly strings out of the can (wobbly and not straight. Then you need to use a thinner ...

Re: Geeetech i3 Pro W horror stories

I know the i3 pro3 can be frustrating in the beginning. If you want out-of the box solutions there are more expensive straight forward printers.

I got frustrated a lot too in the beginning. Then I changed my mindset. And got interested in upgrading, maintaining, troubleshooting the printer. Now I ...

Re: Tl smoothers?

Oh I guess I never gave a proper report.
The smoothers did nothing of interest.

The new cura update on the other hand 4.12 for sure enhanced surface quality.

Tl smoothers?

Any 1 tried tl smoothers on the i3pro?
Does it help with artifacts for you?
Or is it generating more problems/ not changing a thing?

I can do some testing if no 1 tried yet

Re: Firmware arduino error

Hello william.
I orderd the replacement for the sensor.
I still got the red light flashing if the nozzle is near the hot bed. I guess my offset is wrong.
(If i try the autohome my nozzle goes way to deep till the z axis jams.)


I used the Firmware preconfigured for the i3 pro w with touch sensor ...

Re: Firmware arduino error

Without the touch Sensor it all works as intended.
I really guess the sensor is an ex sensor.

I will get an replacement and keep testing.

Once again thanks for all your Support william.
You kept me going at the start of this exciting hobby.
I will share my results as soon as i finished my upgrades ...

Re: Firmware for bltouch

Also pla works much better with a cooling fan for the print.

Also use lower speed specially on the initial layer

Re: Firmware arduino error

Like i said. Now it stopped working all together. No light no movement nothing.

Before that. It did the selftest (2 probe klicks and then flashing) but when it was on x0 y0 z0and did only touch the edge of the heat bed without the glas it seamed to work. Maybe the offset was wrong. But now it ...
