    All of a sudden my machine is disconnecting from the computer while printing. Causing t to stop printing, but the extruder and bed are still hot hours after it disconnects.

    I'm using simplify 3dand i have a r1+

    Is your PC going into sleep mode? Make sure that's turned off. I would get a PI and install OctoPrint.

    Are there any errors in the GCode terminal when this happens?
    Save the entire thing to disk with copy-pase and notepad, then search it for errors.

    This is usually a communications error with the printer and the computer.
    Try a new (and high quality) USB cable. The logs as I mentioned above can also help narrow down the issue.
