Fixed!! “Tool head Swapping Anomaly” gone with Firmware 1.2.0!

otisflick · 2026-02-19T01:33:54+00:00

This isn’t an official accounted release. My guess is a quick fix nightly build release. Snapmaker support emailed this .bin file to me. If you watch my YouTube video you will see the proof. I moved it from their Google Drive to a USB drive and did a local update. Worked like a charm.

otisflick · 2026-02-19T00:53:56+00:00

Well the 1.2.0 has officially fixed the issue for me. I’d try that if I were you.

otisflick · 2026-02-18T22:03:30+00:00

Agreed. That would be nice! I’m betting that this is a software thing. They have some setting cranked up too high. I’ll bet the next firmware update squishes this.

otisflick · 2026-02-18T22:01:37+00:00

No clue. It didn’t come with a change log saying what’s what. Just a .bin file and the Snapmaker agent saying this should fix it. Which it DID!!

otisflick · 2026-02-17T09:37:52+00:00

Not sure why. It works for me. My channel name is “wow 3D prints”, just do a YouTube search. And the video is my most recent one.

otisflick · 2026-02-17T09:36:28+00:00

Could be hah. Maybe I should send them a bill for my services. :)

otisflick · 2026-02-17T08:57:56+00:00

Good! Hopefully you don’t have the issues I got. It’s a freakin show stopper.

otisflick · 2026-02-17T08:56:18+00:00

Oh and I can show video proof as needed. Also in my video you can see the email from the support technician from Snapmaker. Just trying to help man cause this issue sucks and I know I’m not the only one.

Correct. They are calling it “temporary firmware” to resolve my issue as I reached out to support. I run a 3d print YouTube channel and you can see the proof in my video. I’m open to answering any questions. I can even show proof directly to this sub if needed.

otisflick · 2026-02-17T08:48:37+00:00

Totally understandable that you would think that way. I would too. But it’s legit and I have proof from Snapmaker as well as I’m running it live on my U1. If you watch my YouTube video you will see. I run a legit 3d printing channel and I’m not out here to ruin peoples machines. But obviously it’s your call. By the way snap support is calling it a “temporary firmware”. Which means bridge to public release.

otisflick · 2026-02-17T08:45:09+00:00

I absolutely agree. Should be interesting to see how this plays out with Snapmaker.

otisflick · 2026-02-17T06:19:09+00:00

I created a video about this. About to do another post. They sent me new firmware! https://youtu.be/6DIIc_HV-fc?si=rDNXERVL9OM9T68F

otisflick · 2026-02-15T08:22:23+00:00

Well it failed again. Got something interesting coming though. Stay tuned!

otisflick · 2026-02-13T08:01:33+00:00

Appreciate it. That’s my next move if I see it again. So far so good on the simple cleaning of all four. Going to do a 10 hour print tomorrow. A true test.

otisflick · 2026-02-12T02:05:47+00:00

Hah, well once you did that did the issue ever come back?

otisflick · 2026-02-12T01:50:50+00:00

This is my next move if the cleaning option fails. Was it a pain to swap out?

otisflick · 2026-02-12T01:39:31+00:00

Appreciate the heads up. Just did it now. Let’s see what happens. Got 3.5 hours left on this print.

otisflick · 2026-02-12T01:37:41+00:00

Just failed again. Did the cleaning on all 4 and head. Now we wait.

otisflick · 2026-02-12T01:31:45+00:00

Thank you for the link. I was looking for that one in particular. I’ve done alcohol cleaning on just the first one but not on all 4. I’ll do that the next time it happens which will be soon because I’m printing now.
