Extruder motor rotate unproberly

Hello!

I have bought Prusa i3 printer kit. I have finished assembly and... there is one problem: extruder motor rotate in wrong direction after g-code launch (in "extruder position" menu mode during filament inserting it rotate properly). What can i do to correct it?

Re: Extruder motor rotate unproberly

Hi Ryzhov

Welcome to the forum.

OK, so the extruder loads the filament correctly and therefore the motor is working correctly.

Did you slice an object yourself or are you trying to print an object that is already sliced (one of the gcode files pre-loaded on the SD card)?

If you are slicing yourself, it seems that you may have the printer settings wrong. The extruder needs to be set to "relative" and not "absolute". What slicer are you using? Have you tried downloading the specific slicer settings from this forum?
