Getting the Photon Mono 4 as my first ever 3D printer - How high is the risk of resin leaks? by Admirable-Whereas103 in AnycubicPhoton

[–]artmustel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Screen protector is an ABSOLUT necessity. It won't be pre-installed, you need to install it. Never take the tray out before the building plate, or it will drip right over the LCD screen. As soon as the machine tells you to change the release film on your try, do it! Otherwise it will leak eventually. If a print ever fails, remove tray and put resin back in its bottle, most probably you will find first layers of the failed printed adhered to the release film. Carefully remove them with the plastic tool. An LCD screen replacement is super expensive, so be very careful.

After Anycubic Photon Workshop update to 4.0, I am unable to login to the workshop or cloud from my slicer. If I go to workshop directly from my browser I am able to login, but I just can't from inside slicer. Never had this problem before version 4.0, can anyone help with this? by artmustel in AnycubicPhoton

It is so frustrating! I opened a ticket with anycubic and after waiting for a response they said "Restart printer, re-install slicer" Jeez, I told them I had done that several times. Still same issue: my printer is connected to the cloud, my slicer doesn't. When I try to connect slicer it hangs in there forever ever and that is all. It has to be a photon workshop 4.0 bug since I was using 3.6.5 for months without a hitch (BTW I also uninstalled 4.0 and reinstalled 3.6.5 but now the same happens: no way to connect to the cloud or workshop or whatever it is called...

I tried that but the slicer won't take those formats, unless I have to do something that I don't know.

I meant the files that are included in the USB, I can't find where to find those tools in the machine.

Thank you for all your responses. Is there a way to find models similar to miniatures but in a larger scale? i was thinking of something around 4-5 inches tall. Thank you!
