11.2. FIRMWARE UPDATE ON OLDER PRINTERS

If you have an older printer and update it a long time ago the first need to restart your printer. Follow

the next easy instructions and update your Firmware.
From time-to-time you may encounter a traffic jam scenario when attempting to upload this new

firmware; in some cases your CraftBot’s screen will go completely blank and even seem to be

nonfunctional… but do not worry! This situation can be easily remedied by following these easy steps to

fix this problem.
Take a look at your LCD display located at the middle top front of the CraftBot 3D printer. You will need

to get around to the back of the LCD HMI board to find erase button. The „erase” button is located on

the bottom right corner of the LCD or on the left. Switch off your machine. Wait 10 seconds. Press and

hold the „erase” button on the HMI board, while powering up your printer again. Wait 5 seconds, and

switch off your printer again and release the erase button.
Main PCB board
To erase the controller PCB Board, while your printer is still switched off, use a piece of filament to

insert into the „erase” hole which is located on the right side of the printer, under the USB / Encoder

connectors. Press and hold the button ( you should feel and hear a click as you push in this switch) with

the filament, while powering up your printer again. Wait 5 seconds, and switch off your printer. Now

both controller boards are erased. At this point the screen should still be blank and your CraftBot should

still be unresponsive. From this point proceed to the firmware update mentioned previously and after

uploading you should have a 100% operational CraftBot 3D printer again!

12. APPLYING A NEW LAYER

OF PROTECTIVE KAPTON

SHEET TO YOUR BUILD PLATE

Build plate Kapton sheets can get worn out over time, or it can be damaged by the nozzle due to

incorrect leveling. Reapplying a new Kapton sheet is essential to maximize print qualities if the old one

has issues. To reapply a new Kapton sheet, take the build plate out of the machine and remove the old

sheet by striping it off of the aluminum plate. Clean the surface of the aluminum plate with acetone.
