Topic: 3D printer prints null (No Extrude no extraction of filament)

3D Printer not extruding properly to my expectation. Here the settings made:

Extruder temp: 200 deg
Bed temp: 100-110 deg

But when it started printing there was no extruded material. See / download the video below.

- Printing-Nothing_Extracted.MOV
see attached file

- Printing_Nothing_Extracted2.MOV
see attached file

After numerous try of printing, (with the same temperature settings) extruder was able to extrude filament.
see attached file

"BUT" after some layers the object has lost contact with the bed sad
see attached file

Now here are my issues:
1. Calibration - Do I have to calibrate / setup some other parameters excluding the temperature settings?
2. How can I be sure that the extruder extracts filament to the bed? (I made some checking before printing -
3. How can I be sure that the bed will hold the extracted filament firmly?
4. What are the maintenance routines to be done for printer to be in good shape.

Looking forward for some inputs.

Re: 3D printer prints null (No Extrude no extraction of filament)

I had the same Problem by myself. My solution was:

Printer Interface
Settings
Options
e_feedrate 300 instead of 1
