Topic: Prints not sticking - temp settings?
I bought my Davinci Duo about 10 days ago. I was able to immediately get reasonable prints using the XYZ Filament and the glue stick method. Two days in I purchased Simplify3D 2.2 to avoid dealing with XYZWare and have been very happy with it. After a week and about 20 prints, I only had one instance where a print had issues, and that was a with a multicolor print that released from the base and started knocking around. Even then I was able to salvage the other objects I'd ganged up.
Two days ago I replaced the stock firmware with Repetier 0.92 for DaVinci. Since then, I've been unable to get a single clean print - nothing will adhere to the bed. Note that I'm using the same cartridges and glue sticks that produced successful prints over the last week. I'm also using the same version of Simplify3D. The only thing that's changed is the firmware. I did bed calibration as per instructions in this forum, and have done it multiple times since.
I've tried running bed temp from 80 to 110, extruder temps from 200 - 235, and I've lowered print speed from default 1800 mm/min to 1500. Nothing works so far. Prior to the firmware change I often had to use a razor blade and some pressure to get pieces to release from the bed. Now I can't get anything to stick.
I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Am I better off switching back to stock firmware and using a cartridge resetter? Or do folks have actual success using Repetier firmware on a duo? If so, can someone share the settings they use, either in Simplify3D or Repetier Host? If I can get one successful print to build on I can take it from there.
