Wrong nozzle themperature

[Sam-Nicolai Johnston @sam-n-johnstongmail-com]

Changed a reel, purged it. Then proceeded to print a shape. The reel is PLA Polar White, with a normal nozzle temp of 185°C. But it is printing at ~215°C! See picture for more details. BTW, the screen shot was NOT taken on the first layer. I don’t understand how I could correct this error.

Should I just use the M104 command at every start of a print job to adjust to the right nozzle temp?

Is there a way I could solve this?

Thanks!

Sam

@sam-n-johnstongmail-com If it is just the first layer, I wouldn’t worry about it. You aren’t going to wreck anything. If it continues to print at a higher temperature you may have a problem with the reel talking to the Robox. Take the reel off and select the material profile manually with the reel sitting on a turntable or something similar next to the Robox. If you still have the same problems you may have a corrupt profile on your reel. You can rewrite it from the default included with AutoMaker.

It printed all the way at that temperature.

Finally I did an extra purge and robox corrected itself and put the nozzle at the right temperature.
