Bearings not smooth?
Have greased bearing etc well, and orientated them correctly as marked. However when moving the x-carriage back and forth they do not seem smooth, and seems loud?
Is this normal and just me, or something wrong here??
RE: Bearings not smooth?
FYI - Prusa Chat were very helpful. Send the video across and this was the response:
”It sounds fine - it will always be much louder when you move it by hand compared to when it's controlled by the board. If anything, you can loosen your X belt just a tad. But overall I don't hear anything concerning in the video”
He even sent me a video of his own printer at home to confirm the sound!! Can’t ask for much more then that!

You are going to be shocked at how quiet this thing is.

Many year MK3 owner with a 3 day old MK4. I’ve run into the room several times thinking the MK4 was dead/broken, only to find it’s just quieter.
of course, I had the original power supply and replaced it with a 240W meanwell (with fan) when PRUSA was still insisting that the original (120W?) power supply was specked sufficiently.
When someone asks you if you're a god, you say, "YES!"

You were right - its certainly quieter!!!
