Printing stops - G-code transfer too slow (after transferring file to USB)
I get a message that g-code transfer is too slow and something about network when printing certain models. They slice without problem and seem ok, but Core One wont print them. It just pauses and stops. Very frustrating.
RE: Printing stops - G-code transfer too slow (after transferring file to USB)
Seems there is a workaround that also confirms there is a bug either in Prusa Connect or the Core One firmware.
Don't upload to printer & print in one go. Instead "only copy to printer". As soon as it's uploaded it seems to print fine. Have only tried with one model so far.
If you click the "add to queue" it will fail every time. Setting the speed slower won't help. You have to do the upload and print in two separate steps.

FYI this also occurs now on the MK4S with the latest firmware update from Prusa.

Yes it's a software bug. I tried to explain to Prusa support but haven't heard anything from them so I assume they are having a hard time reproducing the problem (most likely because they are testing without limited bandwidth when uploading the model to Prusa Connect).
The workaround works fine, but it's a bit silly that such a simple feature as upload & wait for completion doesn't work as intended 🙂

I have started having this issue with my print stopped and a warning saying G Code transfer to slow , its happened 2 or 3 different prints and has just began less than a 2 weeks , seems like it started after the latest update to prusa slicer but maybe not im not sure I have very strong wifi also so in theory shouldn't be the problem just wondering if maybe it could be the usb stick
I have very strong wifi;
This is probably contributing to the problem. WiFi protocols are inherently polite and back off if any other station in range is using the channel. Powerful WiFi 'sees' far more neighbours than low power WiFi and so is more likely to encounter traffic ...
I your access point is able, reduce the power level to the lowest level that *just* covers your working area and it should run faster.
That said, WiFi is not a good way to transmit data in the presence of moving machinery; run a network cable if you feel you must have a data connection.
Cheerio,
