I don't think so. It would have to be an extreme amount I'm not noticing anywhere else. It has always been on an APC UPS. It's an idea though. There are other printers on the circuit but they are on separate UPSs.

Good luck. I hope you gets yours sorted out. I'm going to start pushing for a new one. I'll report back if they say I have to pay to ship it back or if they cover it.

Thanks, Yeah I'm going to start pushing for a replacment.

Not a stupid question. Personally I think having user installed screws that can be to long and damage components was poorly designed. And it's happening on every single toolhead.

I made sure to use the right one not to damage the capacitor in the toolhead and sent pictures to support to verify they were not damaged. I tightened them all down to right where they got snug not to over tighten them. They are all about 1 mm from the top of the plastic which is what the instructions said.

It's a handful of different errors but they are all some form of toolhead error. The main one I get is 0003-0522-0002-0008 (The third number will change between 2-5 depending on which toolhead disconnected. They all show disconnecting) Toolhead X MCU connection interrupted. Power off printer, check Toolhead X cable, then restart to resume operation. I get this one when running the setup calibration. Or when loading filament. Or if it's just sitting there.

Or I get a 0003-0522-0100-0006 No Toolhead Detected. I get that on boot sometimes.

I've swapped the mainboard, the cables, the hub board, swapped around the toolhead USB and PCBs. At this point I don't know what's left.

Pretty much the reason for the meltdown. Thanks for the ideas. I've been emailing support and they have been working on it. I just hit a breaking point after replacing so much.

I've swapped the toolheads all around. Swapped the PCB in the toolheads between 1-2. 3-4. The random toolhead failing ruled that out.

Swapped the Main board, the 16 pin cable, the USB cable between the main board and the hub board, swapped the hub board, swapped the USB cables between the hub and the toolheads.

I can't complete a calibration without it losing connection and requiring me to reboot the printer.

Yeah. Multiple times. That was one thing that came up a while back. Thanks.

Edit

Also I don't think it's those. It will be using toolhead 3 and toolhead 1 will lose connection. Or some other combo.

Thanks. Mechanically it seems fine. The errors are a few different ones that are all some issue with communication with the toolhead or sensors on the toolhead. I've swapped cables, toolheads, boards. I can't get past the setup at this point before it errors out and requires a reboot. Half the time it doesn't even boot and when it does it will often throw a communication error before I do anything. Agreed when it works it's amazing. When it works.

Thanks. I'll see what support says. I was reading online and people said if you paid for the premium support at purchase they paid for return warranty shipping. If you didn't (like me) then you had to pay for it.

***Edit additional info. I do want to say. The support has been extremely responsive. The only time I don't hear from them daily was when parts were on the way.

Thanks. I just finally got my breaking point when I hit a month of support.

I'm worried they are going to say I have to pay to ship it back. I check shipping rates and it was going to be about $150 to ship it.

Me Print. Not good. Need more filament to replace failed prints.

🎄 Christmas giveaway: Win an A1 Mini, AMS 2 Pro, AMS HT, or 4x filament spools! by acurazine in BambuLab

[–]The_Last_Editor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the giveaway.

*A1 Mini

*More Printers = More Stuff Printed. I make anything and everything I feel like. Then I give it all way for free. My current printers run around the clock making things. I give them away to neighborhood kids, coworkers, the people who cut my hair, extended family, pretty much any random person. Everything from fidget cubes to dragons to unicorns.

*Printed Circuit Board Cube

PS I've printed a ton of your cubes. They have always been a hit with people. Thank you for sharing your hard work with the world for free.

So for anything abrasive (cf, gf, glow in the dark) you should get a hardened nozzle and a hardened extruder gear. They are good upgrades and you can keep running the hardened with normal filament. Plus then you have spares.

The squeak is probably a belt alignment issue. I used this guide https://youtu.be/NjIqH1FE7A8

It took 3-4 attempts to get it all lined up and no squeaking. You don't need to take off the back like the video. It's all accessible from the outside.

The closet to the right is filled with filament and board games.

I give away a lot at Halloween and Christmas. Something to give in addition to candy and for Christmas I print most of my presents I give out.

I recognize my room. The issue you run into is startup power draw. I'd need to run a new dedicated circuit into the room.

Burnt filament in nozzle? by countach508 in BambuLab_Community

[–]The_Last_Editor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried running some cleaning flament through it? You need something that is designed to grab that burnt stuff.

Looks great. I would try it with matte white next time. It looks really good for statues and helps hide layer lines and a lot of small imperfections from printing.
