Hi everybody, thought I would share a weird problem that has been happening with my printer.
I use the Sanguinololu controller obviously, and all is well - models are being printed as well as they can.
But! If I try printing something large - like [www.thingiverse.com] - a strange thing happens.
Printing starts as it should but the printer does not move in Z direction. LCD screen shows that it does (Z level count increases), Octoprint shows it does - but nope, it continues to scratch the bed glass layer after layer. And it only happens with largish prints. Firmware is Marlin nowadays but before I used Repetier and the result was the same. Any ideas/suggestions?
