WiFi Module- adding Printjob.Gcode

OK, I've succeeded in getting the WiFi module working and can remotely control my A30 Pro which is great. I can see the WiFi TF card and the Geeetech TF card with all my print jobs. I emailed a Printjob.gcode to my iOS mobile but can't copy and paste it into either TF card or onto the Cloud. Is this...

Re: Trying to print TPU

One little trick that I've found useful is to keep a small length of PTFE tube just for flexibles and keep your print job as close to the Bowden drive. The less distance to push, the less friction and the greater likelihood of success. Make sure your extruder is really clean particularly if you've b...

Is A30 Pro compatible with Octoprint?

I have been to the Octoprint site and checked listed 3D printers. Geeetech A30 is listed, so does this also include the A30 Pro? I would just like some confirmation before going down this road. Any comments, recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Noisy Fan When Heating Bed

Mine's doing the same thing. I've just now, lodged a ticket with support requesting a replacement fan. Hmm... how did you get on?

Re: Shifting on y-axis

I think I've fixed the problem. The four manual bed adjusting threaded rods under the bed were loose. I've tightened then and i think it's fixed the issue. I rotated the print job 90 degrees so I haven't done exactly the same print but I think it's solved.

Re: Shifting on y-axis

Checked it out. When printing ABS code E.Fan off, Controller fan is definitely on. So I'm assuming I have a y-axis stepper driver issue. Time to contact support unless someone can point me in the right direction.

Re: Shifting on y-axis

Hmm. No replies but I've done some research. Looks like it might be the same problem as the Creality Ender where the Extruder fan is turned off when using ABS but this also turns off the controller cooling fan. Works fine with PLA. I'm off to confirm this theory.

Re: HELP Best Slicer Profil Cura 4.5 for A30 PRO

Ditto! New machine so this provides a great start. First print was OK but not symmetrical. Printed 50mm cube so hope to adjust.

Re: HELP Best Slicer Profil Cura 4.5 for A30 PRO

Thanks Ricbru and Judy Yu. Newbie with an A30pro so this is very helpful. Just setting up my first prints through Cura. Test print came out OK, so trying my own designs now. Happy Days! :)
