Steppers not turning off

Hello everyone,

I'm so frustrated with this printer....I spent $1000 and it acts like a POS. So I updated the firmware and it started printing like crap.

I couldn't turn off stepping. I reinstalled order firmware, it prints a bit better but still not good.

The roof was printed before firmware.

the base was after.

I'm not sure what that would have to do with anything, but M84 should turn off the motors completely.

It looks like you're starting to develop a jam. Time for a few cold pulls and some cleaner filament.

thanks for the reply!

at what temp do you recommend the pulls?

pulling wont damage the extruder gears?

no, ideally you just loosen up the idler door beforehand.

with pla yank it as soon as it hits 70-80.
