Topic: Repetier Flash strange infill, overextrusion?

I recently flashed my 1.0 to repetier and am using host version 1.0.6. I have been able to get all the settings correct and it prints fine except the infill seems to be too "deep" (don't know the right word), meaning when it prints the infill, the edges around the hot end are curled up a bit so when the hotend goes back over the previously printing infill it rubs it. You can still in the picture where the hotend cut a path right through the top of it. I am using the stock extruder/hotend, and am using slic3r at .2mm layer height. The picture is of the second or third layer of the print http://i1194.photobucket.com/albums/aa376/pbcrazy96/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsu4verosa.jpg

Re: Repetier Flash strange infill, overextrusion?

have you tried printing higher? Are there any blobs/excess filament that stick to the extruder? If so then it may be that the extruder is too low and colliding with the print

I have not, but I'm not sure why it would be too low. I used the same 2 pieces of paper calibration I have always used and haven't had any first layer sticking problems or hot end hitting the bed. Hot end is clean.

Here's a bad picture of the next few layers, I tried to get a close up so you can see a top layer and infill in the same photo. The infill looks ok, but the top solid layer of the "VT"has the same cuts through it

Re: Repetier Flash strange infill, overextrusion?

Also a newer problem, when I add a pause command in the gcode to change out filament, everything works fine. I can adjusted the x/y axis and retract/extrude. But when I resume the print, the x axis (side to side) is fine, but the y axis (front to back) prints off. Meaning it prints ~10mm to rear of where it actually should, and just was printing. This happens even if no axis are adjusted when paused and resumed. Any idea?

Re: Repetier Flash strange infill, overextrusion?

You are over extruding. You need to adjust your feed multiplier in your slicer. The steps per mm in the repetier for the extruder is higher than stock so you are putting out a bit more filament then you where on stock.
