Topic: Hello - printer issues

Hello everyone

I have been running my solidoodle 3 for about 2 weeks now and it has been running smooth. My prints haven't been the greatest but I am learning how to adjust for success.

Today I made an object in google sketch up and exported it to am stl. Upon transferring it to repetier my printer head seemed to crash on one of the the axis. Since then I can't do anything. It connects and I can home the head, but after that I can't do anything. The head won't move on any axis, and any command I hit says "1 command waiting". I have read the posts about one command waiting but I feel this is a different situation. The head won't move even if I wait a while.

Any suggestions?

I just want the head to move around and make sure all the motors are working and the bed moves on the z axis. I reinstalled the software and drivers and still nothing.

Sorry I forgot to add the below

I am running on a mac. I have the newest versions of repetier and slic3r. I have all the printer settings as discussed through all the posts at 25000 and so on.

Re: Hello - printer issues

anything in the error log at the bottom of the screen?

Wat do you mean by 'crash' did it hit the end of travel and stall the stepper? you might check the limit switches on the right side of the x axis and the back/left of the y axis.
