Welcome. Game pass is great if you dont have a lot of games, but once you get a back log of stuff, its not worth keeping imho.

The worst decision I’ve made in this console generation was buying a console. Xbox has had almost nothing interesting after I moved away from Sony, I realized I should’ve taken the money and purchased a pc sooner than I did. It really is the beat of both worlds. The only downside for me is the lack of physical media.

I’ve gotten used copies of games from GameStop for less than the subscription price. If the disk dies in life time, I guess I’ll just move fully over to pc to wait for the steam sales

Edit: wording

I have a Espon ET-5150. Its worked fine so far but I wish my wife would’ve let me spring for a laser printer.

Thank you for the tip! I’ll look into those for sure. It sounds like they would be a perfect fit with very little downside

Hahaha I’m good there! I’m on month 2 of what should’ve been a 3 day project for a friend. I’m chalking it up to a bad model after this and moving on to a different print to save my sanity

Thank you! I gave it a clean and fingers crossed it works put tomorrow when I’ve got some more time to mess with a test print

Thank you! Unfortunately i didnt get a cool spaghetti monster this time, but I like the idea of keeping them to see how far youve come

Thank you! I that makes me feel better about leaving it print while I’m at work

Thank you! I’d rather deal with a contaminated print than a fire

That’s fair. More accurately a different reputable brand. Prusa and Bamboo Labs are both ones I would look at if I had to do it all over again.

Good to know. I’ll add that to a check list to go through every now and again

Ah man, but at least you have 2 years of experience under your belt!

Thank you!

Thank you, that did the trick to remove it!

If i were to leave something like that, is there a risk of a fire starting?

Thank you for your advice and encouragement! Its comforting to know that its happened to everyone and its a common error.

After everything is cleaned up should i reseat the heat block before i remove the nozzle to clear the gunk or after?

Anytime. Thank you for your words of encouragement!

No worries! Thats exactly where it is. The burned on stuff goes all the way down the side and around the back.

I’m afraid this bing need to be totally taken apart but i haven’t done much more than investigate and pull at some easy pieces so far.

Keep in mind this is my first printer and I’m new to the hobby so I’m at the why isn’t this working and why did I do this to myself stage. This might not be a problem for more experienced people. Thankfully this community exists because I’d be lost otherwise

The problem is I don’t even know what happened or how the pla got around that silicon sleeve. Part of me just wants to say forget it and continue to print with it like this but I feel like this is just a fire waiting to happen.

Thank you for the advice! I think I’m gonna run with it and put the printer in the closet for a bit.

Anything else but an Ender 3. I’ve spent more time tinkering with the thing than I have printing
