First Print: Filament not Extruding
-
Hello,
I am a 3D printer newbie. I have the machine set up and bed leveled ready for the first print. I have watched a few YouTube videos as well as followed the directions given, but using the filament provided, it is not extruding. Not even after it has heated up.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Lisa

@lisarein heat up the nozzle. (230deg.)Try again. If it still does not extrude, screw off the heated nozzle. Check if the filament goes through. If yes , remove the filament and push the Bowden tube though the hot end to remove any sticking ABS. Assemble again and try again. Good luck.

I took it apart the tubing and cranked the heat. I put it back together and even though I cleaned it out, it still did not extrude.
Please advise.

@lisarein I have tried heating up the filament to ABS temps and manually feeding the filament in. Still not extruding. We are excited to get this working any advice and pointers would be appreciated!!
