i remember that there was a bug where you couldn't put the temperature command
into the gcode on the SDcard, or the machine would heat up but then just hang
(which is terrible and clogs the nozzle and fills the space with the smell of
burning plastic)
i don't know if that bug exists in the firmware i downloaded and put in the
machine.
also i hate the little LCD and knob interface, and i think computers should
have a keyboard and ssh server...
i look forward to installing octoprint on the computer there, so that people
can use their own laptop to drive the printer through their browser, and even
watch it through a webcam.
also without a computer how are you supposed to tweak and jog the machine?
through the LCD and knob thing? no thanks.
I can't wait to see people printing with it!

Jake I have printed 100% of the time from that machine
from SD card with
excellent results after minor setting tweaks. Sorry if you have not had good
luck. Does the new firmware disable this feature or make it more difficult?
Either way thank you for putting in the time to fix it and I'll happily use
either method going forward.

I uploaded the correct firmware to the machine

machine with different physical attributes) and now it seems to print fine.
I didn't have the time to properly prepare the bed though, so there was
some
non-adhesion, but the giant spool of filament is hooked up and it's ready
to
go.
cura-lulzbot slicer is installed on the computer there, and "sudoroom white
ABS" filament is defined and should work. Pronterface (red icon) is the
program to use to drive the printer and run the gcode generated by cura.
don't do the SD card thing, it won't work and is terrible.

the left side of a calibration cube... Thought I'd share with you. Any
ideas?

https://sudoroom.org/lists/listinfo/sudo-discuss that's great that you got it working! which
filament were you using? we
have a
large spool of white ABS but the spool came apart. if we fix the spool
and
dust it off, it's still good.
the hard part of using big spools of filament is making sure that the
printer
has a straight path to pull from the spool, and the spool can rotate
freely.
i can help with this on Tuesday. we already have so much filament, i
don't
want to buy more yet.
