Re: How can i verify a dead LCD screen?

sorry for not replying but it seems like all my posts require mod verification before they show and is painfully slow. So i resorted to other forums. I bought the RepRap 12864 LCD Graphic Smart Display and just done a straight swap. The display was cheap enough anyway. One thing to note is for the L...

Re: Extruder Calibration Inconsistent(SOLVED)

Can't seem to delete this post.
