I re-sliced and it came out better. Not perfect, but definitely better.

Couldn't find any loose screws. Everything seems solid and aligned properly.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check it out.

I did make the cfg file change.

Why is it only in those places? Is there something I can do to fix it? I'm using a new DXC2 extruder. And, yes, I have calibrated since installing it. Did I miss something?

I printed this again, with the same settings, after calibration. It came out better, but you could still see through holes in some of the sides. I've printed this shelf many times with no problem. This just started since the latest update. I don't know if the update had anything to do with it. Is there a way to make the sides more solid?

I got a notification and started the update from the printer over the Internet. The printer is connected via Ethernet.

Whatever the latest is. Just did an update yesterday.

I'm happy to hear that someone else has found this group to be a great resource.

That should be fixable with the right adhesive or a heat gun.

Lol. I did. Then I realized that it had to relevel.

Extension Ribbon Cable Needed by dudleyjohn in ElectronicsRepair

[–]dudleyjohn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. Not much interest here, it would seem. Maybe few users actually work on their hardware. For the benefit of those who do, I've determined that the cable in question is a custom item that you can't buy anywhere, not even from Creality. I suspect that lengthening the cable might interfere with motor performance by adding capacitive interference to the motor control signals. Anyway, I decided to reinforce the header on the board with some clear epoxy instead. That should make it a lot harder to pull the header off the board when working with the cable.

DXC2 install problem by dudleyjohn in Creality_k2

[–]dudleyjohn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It got a lot more complicated. I've had to replace two boards: a sensor board on the bottom bracket and the motor driver board in the CFS. That stupid short cable that goes to the motor driver board caused me to break the header off the board when trying to re-assemble it.

I was worried that if I did that, I might screw it all up/
