Hi,
I have printed in PLA and the heat bed was turned off...very strong adhesion indeed!
Regarding the 0.1 gap i used a sheet of paper which is approx. 0.1mm thick (measured by caliper) - if the...

men in black mini gun? -any aliens around your place? LOL;)

i am not an electrican expert but i think it will increase the voltage (12V) in general and not only the heater (heat-bed)

it was 11.8V at my first measure (should be 12V for sure lol) currently i`m running with 13-14V
important: increase the voltage just a little bit!

I had similar problems with heating up the print bed...increased very slowly and could not get over 90degree.
Ethan told me following step:
1.open the bottom cover of the printer
2. at the power...

Not sure but the 2nd screenshot shows that you set an Nozzle diameter of 4mm instead of 0.4mm?

Please check the rods diameter as well (with micrometer if available)...one of my Y-axis rod had a different diameter (smaller about 0.015mm) than the other one and this makes additional wobbling to...

Good News-my printer works again after exchange the extruder thermistor!
all functions checked and i`m printing now:p

I was able to remove the jam by simply drilling with an 2mm drill trough the tube and the ptfe tube remained in place and seems undamaged which is nice:)- one problem solved.

Regarding the...

I disconnected the extruder thermistor at board side and tested if i can at least heat up the bed - temp does not change.

Regading remove the ptfe tube: some unmelted filament still stuck inside...

SAO, thanks for the info`s. The thermistor came out with the head (which is covered in glass). The wire itself looks ok.
If the whole hotend thermistor is dead then i`m just wondering why i have now...

It`s done in PLA. I used PolyPlus Filament "true white" von Polymakr which i wanted to test. Surface looks a little rough on this print with my used settings- sure can be optimized :D
