Z-Axis stepper motors warm even when idle
Hi there,
despite having had my MK2.5S (with MMU2S) running for a while now I am realizing just now that the two stepper motors of the z-axis seem to be always under power. So when the printer is idle the z-axis stepper motors are pretty warm (more than hand-warm, it seems) while all the other stepper motors (x-axis, y-axis, extruder) are cold.
Is that the expected behaviour? Or have I been carrying around an assembly issue for ages?
Kind regards,
Heinz
(edit) fixed some typos ...

RE: Z-Axis stepper motors warm even when idle
I had the same thing from the very beginning of using my MK2 (upgraded to MK2.5 and MK2.5S afterwards), seems like something normal, although I tend not to keep it idle for too long.
