Hi, I recently bought a new PC and installed the Creality slicer. The model slices and I enter send to printer but it stops at ‘Download GCode’. I can print from my phone. Any advice regarding the problem would be appreciated, thank you.
Hello @user9714041500 ![]()
Welcome to the Creality Forum…! ![]()
I noticed mine did that also last night with Creality Print and a K2 Pro. I’ve been using the same system for awhile but it just started doing this. I ended up having to reboot the whole system and then it worked and completed the download. Not sure what causes this all of a sudden though.
Thank you, I’ll check that out.
Hi! I had similar problems while the internet was slow. Usually resending works, sometimes I needed to delete and add printer in slicer again. Let us know if the problem is solved or you need more help ![]()
I have the same problem ‘Download GCode’.
I solved the problem on mine. I had to manually add the printer again. It needs to be printing over the LAN network instead of going through the cloud. My printer is now working again as normal.
Had this happen and i determined the source of the issue. The IP address for the printer on the local network got changed for the printer. So manually adding it back will let it work again. This can happen from time to time with the router, or if you had a power blip. If it becomes a frequent issue look at setting that system with a local static ip in your home network from your router.
Thanks for the information. Working fine now.
I had exactly this issue. Brand new printer arrived today, set up and tried to print. Trying out a multicolour print of my own and it just would not print. I even changed wifi networks (I have a mesh, connected to the router) and nothing seemed to work.
I restarted the slicer and it was fine after that
Weird, good luck with it.
I have the same issue. I am using the new laptop, so that might as well. I hate that I can not reach any support whatsoever. I was told facebook might be helpful, but no luck so far there either.
My problem was fixed when I re-installed the printer. It needs to be printing over the LAN and not the cloud. Hope this might help you.
