Printing foto stopped during print

thanks!!!

Can you take a photo so we can see the color you are seeing? Red is not supposed to be a color, that I know of, that anyone should be seeing.

It is really red.

That is odd. I assumed it was orange.

Nope red for sure

Here is what happened when someone else got the red light. The Button is RED

Thanks I will try that tomorrow because it’s midnight here. Will post again tomorrow.

Found the problem !!! Cable got disconnected from the laser head.
How is this possible? See my previous problems/ statements @dan about the marvel calendar where the design engraving lost alignment during print. As a stated that I foresee a problem with the cable hitting the last screw. I think this is why the cable got disconnected… in my opinion there should be no screws sticking out. This could be solved by sticking a plate over the screws or sincking the screw’s in the metal. Please come up with a solution so this will not happen in the future! Also found that the cable is not aligned whit in the black bar it is in is this normal?

Spell check didn’t help you in that sentence. You might mean that the ribbon is not laying aligned with the black plate that runs the length of the gantry? Mine does lay straight. Or you could mean that the connector is misaligned? It should click in place. If not check that the pins are still good.

I never disconnect the ribbon cable. My ribbon has enough slack to clean the head with the ribbon still attached.

Probably wasn’t secured in the first place. Easy enough to put the cable in without it latching.

Not sure what you mean. Post pictures.

Did you tighten the screws? (You can do that.)

Can you take pictures of the badly aligned white cable in the black bar and post it for the support team to look at?

To post the picture here, drag and drop it onto it’s own line in a reply post.

Most Americans try to learn another language at some point and fail miserably. Your english is fine.

Pictures would really help. Glad you got it working!

No apologies for your English, I couldn’t begin to speak, or spell yours.
I cringe when I hear someone say “Learn to speak English!”
When you hear someone speak with an accent, it means they speak at least one more language than you do.
