    I am having a couple of issues and need some help please.
    Firstly, I am using a Mac to connect to the RoBo3D printer. When I heat the extruder the temperature rises, so it appears that I'm connected. I can't get the print head to move on any axis. Although the temperature rise would indicate that I am connected the network card does not show a connection.
    This set up seemed to work yesterday, but not today. I have not tempered with any other setting.

    Secondly, my printer head appears jammed, if I try to move it manually along the rails it appears stuck unless I use some force.

    Lastly, I have been trying to print some spool holders. on each occasion the piece came unstuck from the printer bed on the left-hand side. I have applied hairspray evenly on the printer bed even though I was printing with PLA.

    Looking forward to your reply,
    Cheers,
    Arun
