No extrusion when printing
Hi, I have this weird problem: when I load the filament I get perfect extrusion. However, when I do First layer calibration or try to print there is no extrusion. The filament goes in a bit and bounces back with a clicking noise. I replaced the nozzle but same thing.
What is going on?
Thanks in advance,
- George

What is your live Z set at?

Re: No extrusion when printing
If the nozzle is too low, the extruder can't extrude due to back pressure - like holding a garden hose to the ground. Set the Live-Z level back to 0, and retry the calibration.

Thanks, you put me in the right direction. I calibrated Z axis and all seems fine now.
