CubeX DUO just stopping the print and shutting off???

Post by PegasusArms »

HELP... my printer was working PERFECT, then...

My CubeX DUO just keeps stopping the print and shutting off???

I start out by plugging it in, selecting HOME, then set Z gap, then select any print file file.

At any time during the print, I go to check on it and it is printing fine.

Then I come back and it is OFF and has stopped printing with an unfinished part.

I turn it back on and the screen says my print was stopped would I like to resume.

I select yes and it says unable to resume my print.

It has done this with 3 test files...

Well, with no answers from this forum post, I tested some thoughts and perhaps have solved the issue. If anyone else has same issue, I hope this helps them as well.

I plugged it into an APC/UPS battery backup and power regulator, I then changed to a high-priced Kingston retail store bought USB thumbdrive instead of the eBay one I was using.

This solved the issue for last 3 prints. So far so good.

So I assume something went wrong with the USB thumbdrive? It was a SanDisk but with eBay sellers who knows if it was authentic as many are fake? I must say with that first USB stick, I ran about 100 prints just fine until this started happening...

Good to hear you have solved it.
I bet it was the power supply that was bothering. My resume from power lost rarely works. I am using the original Cubex pendrive.
