Geeetech

Hi together,
a week ago I bought a Geeetech I3 pro B 3d printer and I haven't printed yet. The problem is, that I can use the Display of the printer, but when I want to auto home or print with USB or print with SD Card nothing happens. I don't know why. I used the building instructions and wired it correctly. I tried it with Repetier Host V 1.6.0 and the printer connected to the software, but when I wanted to print nothing happend again.
What am I doing wrong?

And the display says, that the printer is ready. I can scroll through the menu without problems.

Hi, you can download the serial port to install it yourself, you can refer to this: https://www.geeetech.com/download.html?download_id=40

What happened, did you manage it, as I am building the same printer now and have run into problems with a failed bearing. I am interested to know if they helped you resolve the issue.

Hi Beek,
If you have a problem with 'Sticky' bearings or similar, you should start a new thread, someone will help you.
I would note that one thing I'd add to instructions for building if I was to start again, would be to add a few drops of light oil (Sewing machine or similar - '3-in-one' would be a good start in the UK)
into each linear bearing BEFORE assembly.
I had terrible layer shift problems on the X axis when I started.
All these problems went away with good lubrication.
