Hello
I'm having a big pb with the printer. Everything seems ok, I built it and I can control motors and axis.
I calibrated it with a sheet of paper but when I try to print, nothing happens !
I checkd all the settings but find nothing. Each time I try to print, very very few filament is getting out from the extruder....
When I try to extrude or retract with repetier software, nothing happens...
Is there anybody with the same pb ?
Thx for your help
Problem with a I3 ProB
Re: Problem with a I3 ProB
Hey
Probably a Marlin Configuration problem.
You should probably adjust values in the
#define DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE
or something like that

Hi @lezabour
Thx for your answer but how can I check the values that are in main program ?
If I upload the file from https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marli ... figuration, how can I compare values withe the ones inside my printer ?

Hi,
One advice i learn from the geeetech printer : prepare to have multiple "upload" of your firmware to the printer.
basicly, you will need to download the Firmware from the geeetech forum (http://www.geeetech.com/forum/viewtopic ... 20&t=17046)
Then, upload it, it should be the one you need.
If all is not ok, which is more than possible (for example, i had to inverse the direction of motors for Y & Z axies), you need to modify your configuration.h and re-upload it to your 3d printer.
Then, you'ill know what you have in your configuration, and be able to change the Feed Rate to get more filament if not enough.

Re: Problem with a I3 ProB
The reversal of the Y/Z axis issues can be because of the stepper motors used or the way you view your print table. Not all stepper motors turn the same direction.lezabour wrote:Hi,

When I built my i3 I assigned X to the front/back axis and Y to the side to side axis. It ran backwards. When I swapped the cables and assigned X to side to side and Y to front and back, everything was fine.

@ lezabour : ok I'm gonna try it. I've downloaded the firmwares. Thx for your advices, hope it will work
