g but I wonder if the new 1.19 software will help solving this problem. I am using 1.9 software See other posts about USB troubles. Most likely earth currents in the USB lead inducing rogue signals. Ensure your PC ground and printer ground are from the same AC outlet. cheers Peter Same power source...

The only solution that has worked for me is to unplug the usb after I upload the model and hit the ok button Using this method I can leave a print alone and not baby sit it My printer has seen use on a mac,an old pc with xp and a new pc with windows 7 same random crash problem on each machine I even...

Again today
Turned on my pc turned on printer initialised,loaded print,warmed bed,started print
print finishes printer rams bed into hotend and makes horrendous noises belts slipping

Sad to say my printer is still crashing the print into the head at the end of a job
My up had not been used for a few weeks and it crashed on the first print

Only trouble is, the 1 kilo reels they sell are too large for the hook on the side of my printer, making things a little tricky with keeping it unrolling as it needs to. Anyone know any ways around this?. I had to print a new spool holder and filament guide to use the cd-writer 1kg spools these are...

"This colour changing filament changes colour from green to yellow at 33c, but wait thats not all! It also glows green in the dark!"

Received my filament very quickly :D I think the postage from cd-writer was £7 for up to 4kg ( four spools for £7 :D ) I had to print a new filament spool holder and filament guide to take the new thicker roll I used this filament guide http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:31961 and this spool holder ht...

Thanks guys

Just ordered a roll of glow green and a roll of florescent green from cd-writer.com
I will report back once tested.

Who do you buy filament from for your up! in the UK or europe ? I have only used the genuine filament so far and I am very happy with it other than the limited range of colors. I had a disaster of a printrbot before getting the up! and all of the filament I bought for it (from ebay uk sellers) was o...

Good news my supplier is sending me a CPU.
Last night I tried another print ( my third since the last crash ) and this time very near the end of the print
The table lowered a few inches and then continued to extrude in mid air until I reset the machine my machine is crazy

I'm in Kent,with a UP! Plus

Still waiting for a reply from my suppler (probably closed until the new year)
Is the CPU a part I could fit myself or is it integrated into the motherboard ?

Thanks bruce
I will drop my seller an email

Since I received my up plus just before xmas I have suffered two machine crashes :( Both times it happened at the end of the print ,instead of beeping and lowering the platform It raises the platform ! The first time I caught it and switched off the power. The second time I missed it,and it rammed t...

Cheers guys
To be honest I am not sure how to use the wind barrier anyway I am a noob to the up!

You sir are a genius
Thank you very much,Tested and works
