I can't start printing!!

Post by sss »

I assembled the geetech a10 printer. Then when I turned it on, I couldn't do as Step 4 of the Quick Start Guide's printing process.Image
When I turned it on, the LCD panel showed only this screen.Image Image
Is there a way to initialize the firmware or upgrade to version 1.1.9? What should I do? HELP ME!! (sorry for my bad eng. I am korean..)

Just to make sure, you pushed the knob to bring up the menu and selected homing?

NO! When the firmware was first starting, I didn't operate the knob. Homing was skipped, and I only saw x,y,z...and others..

Give the knob a gently push and you will see the menu, select prepare and then auto-home

Well, holding and turning the knob does not make the menu selection on the panel.

Hold? It is a push, just as a regular button

Oh yeah, pressing the knob works. But I can't choose the menu even if I turn the knob.

It doesn't work .. In fact, I once dropped an LCD display on the floor. Can it cause trouble?
