Ran a 40+ hour print. It got to 98 percent, and then I started getting messages filament needs to reload. Well, it’s not out of filament. I cut the filament and reloaded it, and the message keeps happening even though I get flow during the reload process. Eventually the nozzle just face planted …

I have a new problem though Im not sure its related. The pause/continue-function does not work any more. Neither if i pause the project and turn off/on, or if i turn off the power and hope for it to auto-continue. Is it something with the code we have been using above that overrides this?

Which version of firmware you are using now? Does this issue happen repeatedly?

Firmware: 1.7.0.0.20200321 Happened the last three times i have tried. I´m now updating to the latest firmware to see if the problem still applies. (BTW, the link on the download page leads to the old firmware, not the latest, so I have probably used an old firmware for 2 weeks without beeng awar…

Glad to know that. I am not sure what is the cause of the dysfunction. Given that you can use the function in the new firmware, we are not going to test it in firmware 1.7.0.0, which may be something pointless.

Hi there, is this really the only solution? Even if this screws on the switch were not loose? Because i have the same problems, that the message “filament runout recovery” appears so often. I tried to connect my PC via USB with the Snapmaker, but Luban wasnt able to find the serial port. So i cou…

@zwecke version of Luban? - have you tried the latest from forum? The switch is normally open, you could check if the problem comes from the electronic or the switch itself, - by unplugging the switch from the pcb (I am no snapmaker staff).

Do you hear the click? It may be you will need to very slightly bend the little curve… I don’t work for snapmaker ask snapmaker support to avoid voiding your warranty
