Topic: Odd shifting on both x AND y axis

Does anyone know what could make this happen? I have 5 Da Vinci printers and the second one has started to shift of both the x and y axis.

It doesnt get caught and grind or anything. I watched it to make sure. Just between two layers the head will mode to a new location before starting the next layer, life thats what the gcode told it to do. Same gcode on any of my other machines works fine.

It's like the gcode is getting scrambled on the way to the printer or its being read wrong while printing. printing the demos from the SD card works just fine.

I can't think of anything that would do that other then the motherboard going bad. Any ideas?

Possibly bad communication on the usb port. Are you using a hub?
