Yes, warping is to be expected. You should store your materials flat in as dry a manner as possible. If you place a weight on them they may stay flatter.
Unfortunately your picture didn’t come through. You might try putting the files you want to upload into a zip and uploading that. Perhaps discourse ate your svg.
I haven’t checked the file in detail yet but one thought… It takes a very long time to render this file. I assume it will also take a long time to Process for printing. After it Processes and you select Print, if you don’t wait for the entire preview image to populate before pressing the Print button on the GF it often will not print everything. Were you not aware of this?
Don’t know if it has made it into the official instructions yet, but it’s known on the forum. You need to wait until the preview populates completely before sending the item to be printed.
For extremely large complex files that can take up to several minutes, and it’s easy to send it to print incomplete.
@ben1 is correct, storing your materials flat in a dry place is best. You can read our recommendations here.
@rpegg and @jules, thank you for the advice. It sounds like this is the likely cause. If you are still having trouble after your file fully renders, please let us know.
Regarding the burn marks, would you please:
Does this happen on all prints and materials, or just some? If so, which ones are you seeing the issue with?
There are four dimples for the feet of the crumb tray to sit in. Wipe them with a damp tissue or cloth. Please make sure your crumb tray is fully seated in the dimples.
If you still notice burn marks, please let us know the time and date of the print, and include a photo of the bottom of the material.
