Constant Filament Changes at the First Tool Changer
Constant Filament Changes at the First Tool Changer
Hello everyone,
For some time now, my XL has been repeatedly changing filament at the first tool changer, even though I haven't entered one in the slicer. It can make up to 4-5 changes per shift. All the other four work perfectly, but it's always just the first one.
I've already installed a new nozzle and then calibrated it, but this morning the same thing happened. This morning, I also installed the latest firmware. Could it be faulty?
Does anyone here have any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks for your feedback. Regards, Sven
RE: Constant Filament Changes at the First Tool Changer
Hello everyone,I have similar problems with my XL printer.
I initially ordered one with two tools. With this version, I always got these messages on the first tool that the filament needed to be replaced.
After installing the upgrade to 5 tools, I swapped the first two tools to positions 4 and 5. The printer has been running without any problems for several months now.
For the past two weeks, the first tool has started having problems again, asking for the filament to be replaced mid-print. All the other tools work perfectly.
So it can't be the cable set, but there must be a problem somewhere else.
But where - that's the interesting question.

Yes, this morning I calibrated the filament sensor and also calibrated the parking position of tool 1.
I also greased all the mounting points, as Prusa recommends.
I gave the Filament channel some air, and so far it's working again.
