    Ok im still running the first kickstarter printer with all same parts that were shipped. Now im having a problem running Repetier and matter control every time i go to print it will tell me that its done printing. Do i need to do a update for the board. Sorry for all the questions i have not touched that printer in over a year and all the links i have bookmarked in my favorites dont work and since they re-did the forum here having a hard time finding the things that pertained to my printer.


    Thanks,
    Paul

    No, that sounds more like a communications failure.
    I have seen that a time or two. It is remotely possible it is an arduino failure, but not very likely.
    Swap USB for a newer cable and consider adding a powered USB hub between the computer and the printer.

    (FYI: I have two kickstarter robos, I have added autoleveling to both and the upgraded threaded rod to one)
