Common 3D Printer Issues & Solutions
Common Issues and How to Fix Them
- Under-extrusion: Check the extruder temperature, flow rate, and belt tension. Clean the nozzle if there's clogging.
- Layer Adhesion Problems: Ensure the bed is level and use a raft or brim for better adhesion. Try adjusting the first layer height.
- Nozzle Clogs: Use a needle to clear blockages. Clean the nozzle with a cleaning rod and ensure the filament is not contaminated.
- Print Warping: Increase the bed temperature, use a raft, or apply an adhesive sheet for better adhesion.
- Printer Jumps: Check the X/Y axis belts for tension and ensure the printer is on a stable surface.
