    • RE: Printing Downloaded Files

      But a partially blocked nozzle negates any settings you use. Note to self: check nozzle first, buy more nozzles

    • Printing Downloaded Files

      I've downloaded a bunch of files from Thangs,Thingiverse and a couple of other sites. Many have printed fine. Quite a few gave me a lot of trouble. I manged to tweak a few to print and others I gave up on. So....a few questions about files.

      1. Are the files supposed to be generated with all the print settings in the code?
        I would think that different printers and different types of filament would require different settings. So I'm thinking that's what the slicer is for?

      2. How do you know what settings need to be changed? Knowing if a object needs supports is fairly obvious and it seems that my settings for supports haven't needed to be tweaked. But why does one object print fine and a similar one print like a woven basket?

      I've got a pretty good handle on supports now. I AVOID any .stl file that says presupported! Those supports are impossible to remove. Mine have been paper thin.

      I bought a power & data cable and I still can't get my computer to recognize the Ender-5. 😠 😠

      It's been several days and I have made a lot of progress. I think with that cat, the problem was that the filament was hung up due to being over-wrapped on the spool. I've had it happen a couple of times. 99.9% of the time the model does stick to the build plate.
      I was using Creality's Slicer, but switched to Cura since it seems to be easier to use and have more options. I am learning about supports and how to tweak them.

      Loaded file from Thangs into Creality and saved as gcode. This is how it came out.

    • RE: New prints don't display on screen

      Are they gcode files? Have you printed anything yet?

    • RE: Name of the required ender 5 usbcable?

      It's like the charger cord for older Iphones. Not the mini...the middi. I bought one and the computer knows I've plugged something in, but doesn't recognize exactly what it is. I tried "add a printer" in windows 10 and it finds some HP inkjet printer....have no idea why.

      @SteveDee I changed the filament and it seemed to be working. Most everything printed fine but now the printer only prints to the rear right corner and the pattern is the same no matter which file I load.

      Don't know what to do now............
