Jumpstart printing
-
I am going to try and attach a couple photos but what happens is that it prints fine until the last couple of layers and then it skips, don't know why. Can you tell me from the pictures what might be happening? 41 layers

It looks like a problem with G-Code. Can you send the G-Code file?

Sure I will get my son to send it this evening. I also happened on the MC coin that I printed after calibration. Also thanks for replying, it is much appreciated.

Here is the .stl https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_NniTvxDIAVM3pnV.... Sorry I had to upload it to Google Drive, but I couldn't figure out how to do so on the forum. I used USB Printing so I don't have a GCode file.

@webcity While it is technically true that MatterControl does not explicitly generate a .gcode file when printing via USB (one is actually still generated for every print in the hidden app data folder) the instructions I linked to outlined the process for generating one independently of the print and is necessary for further troubleshooting. Please check the instructions again and share the .gcode file with Google Drive.

@ryan.lutz Sorry but didn't realize the g-code file was a link. My son does this and he didn't see it either. We will get the g-code and upload. thank you

The G-Code is at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_NniTvxDIAVSEdOO...

Thanks. Everything looks fine in the G-Code and the model so I'm not sure what caused that.
Does it happen every time or was this just a one-time problem? Our guess is that it was just an unlucky print and the extruder stopped just on the top layer.
