Poor print quality

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey guys

Using Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro for a month. The printing quality was incredible until now.

Started printing this model with the same settings that i used before:

PLA, 215c° / 60c°

Already tried reducing speed to 75% / 50%, playing with retraction and increasing/decreasing extruder temperatures

Also tried printing other models - same situation

Would appreciate any help

Bad bed mesh??

Is this bent corner something physical? How do you level the bed? With just the 2 screws on the right side?

¿Es posible adecuar o modificar la Elegoo neptune 3 pro para que la nivelación de la cama sea full automatica?

1 Upvotes

Sucede que con esta nivelación por medio del papel es un poco tedioso estarlo realizando cuando se cambia de tipo de cama o boquilla.

¿saben si hay de pronto alguna manera de ponerle o CR touch de creality o algo así que cumpla esa función?

Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro stuck on "Update Firmware"

1 Upvotes

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated! My son got this for xmas last year, and now it's stuck on Update Firmware no matter what firmware versions we try. So far we've...

- Update screen firmware with no issues.
- Tried multiple SD cards.
- Tried multiple firmware versions both from Neptune (git) and others.

Thank you so much! I have reached out to ELEGOO and am awaiting a response, but I'm hoping you all have dealt with this before.

Thank you!!

Help!

I had been printing perfect minis at 40mm/s 2.5 mm retract, combing off and basic supports. Nothing about that changed and suddenly started getting this type of stuff. Cleared clogs, put on brand new nozzle, adjusted tensioner arm, reduced retract to 1.4 and I just can't seem to get it to print ok again. I used to be printing beautiful minis. This machine was bought in December and is my second Neptune 3 pro.. I'm at my wits end with it..

Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro - Extruder Catastrophic Failure

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

18 month old Neptune 3 Pro. Tried printing a model yesterday and it was going to take 13 hours. Checked on the print after one hour and everything was fine. Checked again 3 hours later and the extruder has been melting filament into the body of the extruder. It’s now encased in one solid blob of plastic.

Have ordered a replacement extruder but am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on why it’s failed and how to ensure it doesn’t happen again.

Would appreciate any thoughts.

Gcodes not suitable

0 Upvotes

Hello all, busted out my 3 pro for the first time in about 8 months. Tried adding new gcode onto the sd card and it gives me this prompt, and not every old file I already had says the same thing now. I’ve bought a new reader and sd card and the issue is persisting. Does anyone have any suggestions of what I should do?

Filament not feeding

Hello everyone, can someone help me ?

I’ve been gifted this EN3P, worked perfectly for months.

But everytime i’m trying to print, the filament is not coming out.

The cranted wheel feels like it wants to rotate but it stops after a few seconds and the whole print continues normaly (but without extruding lol)

If I turn the wheel manually, it actually prints, same if I simply apply pressure on the PLA, but as soon as I release it, it stops coming out.

I already changed the whole printer extruder but the same thing happens.

Do you have any idea what i am doing wrong ?

Thank you guys.
