So, I took off the Printjet cover to see if I could clear the clog. I'm pretty fearless when it comes to tackling mechanical problems. And, that was true for the clicking I was hearing from the Cube PrintJet. More often than not it means the print head is clogged. Virtually, all owners of 3D printers have heard it at some time or other. In a 3D extrusion printer, if the extruder cannot move the filament forward, it makes a clicking sound. But, when I tried to load the new filament into the PrintJet I heard an all too familiar sound. I didn't think much of it and it took some time to obtain more filament. Therefore, the print never completed and the filament ran completely out. I should have taken the time to go get my glasses. And, since I wasn't wearing my reading glasses, the brightness made it difficult to decipher.

I saw something but, because I intended to photograph the piece for a stop-motion movie, I'd flooded it with lights. And, the reason it happened is that I failed to read the warning that came up on the LCD about not having enough material to complete the object as I was starting it. Remember when I ran out of filament? It happened when I was running it unattended. But, that does NOT mean that I have not been able to bring it to its knees.Īnd, by doing so, have made it less likely that you will end up doing so. All of the glowing reviews I have posted about the Cube 3D printer are true, The quality of the prints has been remarkable.
