[Résolu] Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.  

RE:

honestly not sure what to think about that

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

that would explain that but you know the screw is meant to have a spring on it is it still there

RE:

yeah the spring is still on there, took it out and looked at it to make sure it was yesterday

I think the clicking was the spring compressing/turning

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

that does mean you are going to need a few tiny washers or somthing but for now re loosen it and that is why you are getting the top layer bad

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

oh wait but when fillament is loded the screw will be in more

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

alright I will give it another print with it loosened

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

yeah but like this is noticeably in more, ill unload the filament to check first though

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

when fillament unloaded it should go to original position

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

for now just loosen it and see what happens

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

ok yeah never mind it was fine when I unloaded it. still not sure why it made that clicking sound. anyway I loosened it a tad and will try again

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

clicking sound can come from any where motor gear slipping anything like that nothing to worry about unless it dosent print right

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

alright good to know

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

is it working ok now

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

working pretty well, much better definitely

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

yeah perfect

 now the hatch box fillament heat printer to 260 then insert fillament and run a bit through the nozzle then cool down to 225 then use the exact same gcode file you used just for the thin square

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

is it working 

RE:

appears to be, will send pic when finished, for whatever reason the gcode keeps wanting to knock it down to 210 from 215 when it starts after the initial bit at the top of the plate, I may have to look into getting it to stop doing that. same with the flow factor from 100 to 95. I am running it at 225 rn though and it seems to help a lot.

ok 

RE: Having trouble with print quality (under-extrusion) after printing with relatively no problem for a year or so.

worked better, but not as well as the Prusa PLA.
