White smoke
Hello there
I have a problem with my printer. White smoke comes out from the hotend? Maybe. I change everything to sure. Hotend, nozzle, thermistor, cartridge heater, ptfe tube.
As result?! The same thing. White smoke and smell.
Any thoughts?!
RE: White smoke
White steam alone - humidity, need to dry filament.
But smell? Depends. There might be some issue with temperature sensing but moisture is a very common issue, because unintuitive in many ways e.g. when you open a sealed bag with a new spool, it is not necessarily dry.
RE: White smoke
would need more information. It could be what @mnentwig mentioned but I would also suggest reaching out to support so they can go over things with you to get to the bottom of it.

RE:
I try support...they told me that is the thermistor. I Change it and I have the same issue.
I am thinking that maybe I overtight the screw. I don't that I make wrong.
Next move is to take a thermometer gun to see if the temperature is +- ok.
Another idea is that the thermistor goes very high and the plastic tube inside the block melts.
is brand new so I didn't use filament...so is moisture.
