Printer crashing on long prints from SD Card

Post by wize1 » Sun Jan 20, 2019 8:49 pm

Hi guys,

I have problem, it seems my printer crashing if I try to print long prints. It seems what happens, after while of printing at exactly same point in gcode it looses its X-coordinates position and crashes into limit switch ... which does not even stop print, so it just crashes over and over.

I generate my g-code in Cura, because EasyPrint 3D crashes when i click "slice" button. Also as far as i know, EasyPrint 3D uses Cura engine to slice anyways. Another problem EasyPrint 3D crashes without any error message during prints, so im forced to use SD-Card for long prints, but then i get issue that i mentioned where it looses x-coordinates.

Anyone else had this problem and manage to solve it?

Hi kaktus, I think you right :D

And that is exactly is solution ... I was on 35.56, after upgrading to 37.58 all problems went away! :mrgreen:

It is unfortunate that EasyPrint 3D detects as latest firmware 35.56
In fact I think EasyPrint 3D should be just open source, because it has so many bugs, we could commit fixes a lot faster then Geeetech.
