    It happened every time. I am using Robo 3D R1.

    G code:
    G28 ; home all axes
    G1 Z5 F5000 ; lift nozzle
    M109 S[temperature] ; set the extruder temp and wait
    G28 Z0 ; Home Z again in case there was filament on nozzle
    M565 Z0
    G29 ; probe the bed

    Z Offset is 0.9mm

    Your filament jammed, run an oiler with PLA

    or if the extruder stops turning, your temp got too low. "stopped to prevent cold extrusion". or something like that.
    If its turning and nothing is coming out... obviously clogged or jammed. The tiniest kink will stop it from getting into the hotend.

    Also, if you're using the stock filament feed setup, or similar. If the filament has to pull too hard, it can strip and not extrude.

    Hi, Ben thanks for the reply.
    The extruder was 210° and the heatbed was 50° while it's printing. Anyway, I will try to make an oiler first then see how it's going.
