Printing Issues
Cannot insert filament into the Trifecta™ 800 3D
Printer extruder. Remove the filament, trim off the tip off the filament with a pair of
scissors and try loading the filament again.
With one hand, grab the end of the filament and insert it into the
extruder. Using a pinching motion with your other hand, grab the
extruder and press down on the filament tensioning button to allow
the filament to feed through the drive gear. The filament should
thread through and feed into the hotend.
Cannot remove filament from the Trifecta™ 800
3D Printer extruder. Use the change filament wizard found on the LCD control. Allow the
printer to heat up, extrude some filament and retract the filament
out of the extruder.
Alternatively, manually toggle the hotend preheat through the LCD
menu. Once the hotend has heated up, manually push the filament
down to extrude the filament and then pull the filament out.
No molten filament is coming out from the
extruder nozzle. Retract and insert the filament again. Make sure the filament is fully
inserted into the hotend. Also make sure the filament spool is free of
tangles and knots that may prevent the extruder from feeding.
There are skip lines / missing gaps along the
layer of the print. The drive gear teeth may be dirty from use over time. Remove drive
gear and clean with a brush. Re-position the drive gear on the
extruder motor so it aligns correctly with the filament channel and is
tightened.
Ensure that the software extrusion temperature is above 215 degree
Celsius. Lower than normal extrusion will cause additional back
pressure to the hotend, leaving the print surface with gaps.
Ensure that printing speed setting on the Trifecta Software does not
exceed the rate in which the filament can be melted. Printing at
speed between 100-120mm/s is considered high and may affect
the quality of large surface on prints.
Print is not sticking onto the print surface; peels
off during printing. Build platform needs to be re-leveled. Make sure that the first layer
of the print adheres to the print surface slightly flat and consistent.
This will prevent the print object from peeling off mid print.
Use isopropyl alcohol to clean off dirt and oil off the blue tape.
Replace section of the tape if it’s damaged. Ensure that the tape is
applied wrinkle free and edge-to-edge to prevent a uneven surface.
Turn on ‘Brim’ in the slicing software to add a printed border on the
base of your models. This is especially helpful for prints that have
multiple small isolated sections on the base layer.
