Re: creality CR 10 different types/software?

On my older 3DP-17, I blew the main board. They sent me a replacement, no questions asked (I bought a replacement off Amazon though because the replacement took 6 weeks to get through customs). I noticed when I first started using my 3D Printers from Hictop that the mosfets were in my opinion too h...

Re: Last movement touches the print

You can add a line in the End G-Code to raise the nozzle a little so as not to touch the model when moving to home position. Sample from My 3D Printer END G-Code M104 S0 ;extruder heater off M140 S0 ;heated bed heater off (if you have it) G91 ;relative mode G1 Z+0.5 E-2 F{travel_speed} ;raise Z abov...

Re: how to reset printer to factory settings

I believe there is a Initialize EEProm In the Menus.
Best Way is to send a M502 followed by M500 See Below.

M502 reverts to the default "factory settings". You still need to store them in EEPROM afterwards if you want to.
