They claim to have fixed this. Also heat the bed/nozzle to temp before starting.

For sticking, try elmer's glue stick or hair spray. I also found better stick for ABS by printing at 230. (If using RH instead of SP, i drop back down to 220 after the first layer)

And if you have an infrared thermometer, check the bed temp to see if it's really at temp.

I then tried to run the z-axis calibration test and the printer utter refuses to run it.

I can send the commands to home the three axis and it will do that but when I open and run the z-axis test it will generate the commands (I can see them being generated and sent in the configuration menu) but the printer never acknowledges or acts upon them.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software (again), powered off and restarted both the computer and printer, cleared the files from
users/appdata/solidprint and still cannot get the printer to run the test.

It will however accepts and print (very, very poorly) stl files opened in Soliprint and run from that software.
