Error 2111

Just received this printer after owning an Ender 3 for years. Got everything set up and printed a couple of the included test files fine. When I try to print one of my own designs, the printer heats up to 220, does it’s cleaning, then the temp reduces to 150 for leveling but never goes back up to 220 that my print is set for.

From what I’ve found this could be due to a bad slice or a bad hotend. Clearly the hotend is fine since the test prints work fine. I’ve tried the official Creality slicer, Cura, and Orca and all result in the same issue.

What am I doing wrong?

OK rookie mistake. I installed the Creality slicer that came on the thumbdrive which was version 5.1 and didn’t bother to check if there was a newer version. Installed the latest from the website and now it works fine.

I still don’t know why the other slicers didn’t work but whatever, it works now.
