what's your printer type? maybe your Z axis is not well assembled, and wobbing all the time..

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the reply.
My printer is a Pro C. I think it's well assembled.

Thanks.

So maybe your slic3r settings are not that good, you can check the settings here for my G2S pro, see if it can help you.
I use repetier host1.5.6 with the default slic3r.

Hi Mark,
Thank you.
I've a Mac. I'm using the 0.56 version. Is it ok?

Cheers,

Nope, you need to open it in windows.

HI,
I tried that config and the problem remains. It seems to be a z axis problem.

since you said your Z axis is well assembled, so I think maybe you can check this link here:

Hi,
My printer has some wobbling. It has the same behaviour shown on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBcGf69i9RI.

How I can fix it?

Cheers,

RMRodrigues.

your rods, before you assembled them, do they bended or not? If so, maybe you need to make them straight.
