Greetings; I've just been made aware that this printer is doing stuff slightly undersized, and worse for round stuff, its not square either. Can anyone PM me a test file that runs to the 4 or 5 inches square so I can print it to determine scale corrections? I've already got Ed Nisely's master G-CODES reference which includes the m-codes to rewrite the printers NV ram to fix that sort of thing. Thanks.

But it will be around daylight tomorrow morning to do it, tests everything. tests everything and runs the printer very slowly. I also took the broken fan off, and I can say thats the cheesiest built fan I've ever seen. The failure rate of that fan will be astromomical, the hub of the squirrel cage rotor is around 3/32 in diameter, the motor shaft sticks into it by about that same amount, so weak it will be broken by someones little finger touching it with less than an ounce of push. Most assuredly the output of some maker who won the bid as the lowest bidder. Just to clarify, yes I'm upset. The rest of this printer is definitely a step up from lowest bidder stuff, but not that fan, its pure junk from the gitgo. > Thanks. > > Cheers, Gene Heskett Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
