Re: Which config.h file to use?

BOTH configuration.h, configuration_adv.h are needed though configuration_adv.h have a lot of options that in simple mode work with default. Most popular 3D Printers have a starting Marlin configuration.h that will supervise until you learn to configure you own custom config. What 3D Printer are you...

Re: Extruder Crushes Part

I had this problem on my Hictop, as i believe that the display cables were too long. Solved the problem by shielding the cables leading to the Display and created a 3D Printed shielded controller cover. I used Aluminum Foil Tape to line the 3D Printed case and connected a ground wire to the foil at ...

Re: Odd Layer Shifting/Bulging on All Prints

I forgot one cause If the power supply wires are not large enough to carry the current. This may not apply on Ender's though did have a bearing on supply voltage on my Hictop's. The Supply voltage could be correct on power supply though could be below specs on controller board. This could mean large...

Re: Odd Layer Shifting/Bulging on All Prints

There are many reasons for layer shifting. Without the printers settings it will be hard to diagnoses, Layers shifting could be caused by print speed, dirty bearings, configurations settings or debris on smooth rods . I had to clean my bearings an smooth rods thoroughly before I could get smooth pri...
