Extrusion problem
For some reason, my printer stops extruding randomly during a print. To get it printing again I have to take out and reinsert the filament. Anyone know what I can do to fix this.
RE: Extrusion problem
does the extruder move to the front, right of the build plate?
Does the printer Bleep?
Does the LCD ask you to remove the filament...
then insert the filament,
does the printer then extrude some filament and ask if it's clear?
if the answers are Yes... chances are your filament sensor is sensing issues...
try turning the filament sensor off, in settings on the LCD...
does the printer now complete prints without interruption?
if yes, and you have mk3S, then your filament sensor needs adjusting...
if you haveva mk3 (not S version) then you probably need to upgrade to mk3S

Check the grub screw on the extruder motor.
