Getting my printer to work
Posted: Wed May 11, 2016 8:33 am
Hello everyone!
Well, I have successfully assembled my Geeetech Prusa i3 Pro C Dual Extruder 3D printer. Here is where I stand. All endstops seem to work. The Y axis is moving in the correct direction. The X axis seems to be moving backwards. And only one Stepper motor, on the Z axis works. All heaters are heating to the set temps. I swapped the leads on the Z axis steppers, and confirmed that both steppers are good, so it must be the driver board. I have the latest Arduino program, but can't seem to find where to download the firmware. I need to know where to go from here. I'm an electronics tech, but not a programmer. Any help would be appreciated.
