    Regain Control of Existing Case Lights

    I hate the case lights, they're not very bright and they're below the print bed when the print starts, so they're not very effective particularly...

    MAX Bed Temp for the R2?

    No worries. It's not "arguing", it's "rational discourse". A productive discussion. At worst a heated (pun) debate. But not "arguing"... at least,...

    Can you stop the cooling fan when a print stops?

    MAX Bed Temp for the R2?

    MAX Bed Temp for the R2?

    My new R2 was quite happy to accept a 110ºC build plate temp. And it got it there relatively quickly. But every time I tried to print at this temp...
