prusa mk3 lcd displays f brands

Sliced with PrusaSlicer 2.0.0, Printing on MK3S with Firmware v3.7.1.   This is only second print with this slicer/FW combination.  I don"t think the F? was there before but not absolutely sure.  It seems to be printing OK.

Check if the printer is thinking it has an MMU. The F? indenticates which filament is loaded. The question mark because it has no information about it.

I"ve the same isse from time to time, and another guy in the FB group too. My suggestion, it is caused from noise on the port where normally the MMU is connected, or an PWM, an fan. Maybe an bad powersupply or bad contact.

Controlling the LCD screen is done by a single control element: a rotational knob that you press to confirm the selection. By single pressing the control button on the information screen, you enter the main menu.

The reset button is placed directly under the control knob. Pressing the reset button equates to quickly toggling the power switch (hard reset). It is useful when the printer exhibits weird behavior or you see a failed print that requires immediate cancellation.

Shortcut: Quick access to Move Z-axis function - While on the Info-screen and not printing, press and hold the Control knob for 3 seconds. While printing, the same action will let you Live adjust Z for the first two millimeters.

Shortcut: Quick access to change Printing speed - While on the Info-screen, spin the knob either direction, more than one rotation, and see the percentage change.

The Original Prusa i3 MK3S+ is the latest version of our award-winning 3D printers. We have upgraded the MK3S with a brand new SuperPINDA probe for improved first layer calibration, added high-quality bearings and various useful design tweaks to make the printer easier to assemble and maintain. The MK3S+ includes all the proven features of the previous models, including the heatbed with removable PEI spring steel print sheets, automatic Mesh Bed Leveling, filament sensor, power loss recovery (power panic) and safety features. And it is still as silent as ever!The functionality of the MK3S+ can be further enhanced by ourfor printing with up to 5 filaments simultaneously.

Winter holidays are just around the corner! If you decided to buy one of our 3D printers for someone else and you’re not sure if the package is going to make it in time,

SuperPINDA probe features a hiqh-quality sensor for a fully-automatic Mesh Bed Leveling process. Before every print, the printer probes the bed in several places and creates a virtual heightmap of the print area. This process ensures that the first layer will always be spot on!

The MK3S+ features a new set of metal clips for the high-quality bearings on the Y-axis. The belt tensioning mechanism on the X-axis was reworked and the X-end plastic parts reinforced. The filament path in the extruder was altered for better support of flexible filaments.

Spring steel sheets are easy to maintain and make removing the printed object from the print surface a breeze. We offer three types of print surface: smooth, textured and satin to cover all your needs when printing from a wide range of different materials - most of which do not require any special separation layers or surface preparation.

The MK3S+ features an aluminum extrusion Y-axis assembly. Thanks to the milled dural frame, the MK3S+ is stable, rigid, and easy to assemble. Combined with our internally developed extruder featuring Bondtech gears and the E3D V6 hotend, the MK3S+ can print high-quality objects up to 210 mm in height.

Are you afraid of a blackout ruining your 48-hour print? Worry no more - the MK3S+ can deal with that! The printer can fully recover from the loss of power and continue printing exactly where it left off. It detects power interruptions and shuts down the heatbed and extruder heating, and saves the last known location.

The MK3S+ further enhances the reworked extruder from the MK3S. The built-in filament sensor uses a reliable trigger system, which detects whether a strand of filament is inserted into the extruder. It can detect any type and color of filament and is not susceptible to mechanical wear.

Thanks to the SuperPINDA probe, the MK3S+ can use the Mesh Bed Leveling process to compensate for microscopic imperfections of the print sheet, and inconsistencies caused by the assembly and stacking of the manufacturing tolerances of various parts. Achieving a great-looking first layer is quick and easy.

Our internally developed multiplatform slicer comes with in-house made and fully tested profiles for all of our 3D printers and a wide range of filaments. With built-in tools, such as advanced support generation, cutting, automated object distribution, ironing and many others, you will turn your 3D models into print files in no time!

The MK3S+ is fully compatible with a wide range of various types of materials. No matter whether you want to print something for fun from PLA and flexible materials, or you need to produce durable prototypes from PETG, ASA, Polycarbonate and Polypropylene - the MK3S+ can handle them with ease.

We develop firmware for all of our 3D printers and test every new version thoroughly before release. Ongoing development and regular updates ensure that our machines are packed with useful features, such as print sheet profiles, automated calibration, Mesh bed leveling, advanced diagnostics, remaining print time estimation, Octoprint support and more!

Wide range of thermoplastics, including PLA, PETG, ASA, ABS, PC (Polycarbonate), CPE, PVA/BVOH, PVB, HIPS, PP (Polypropylene), Flex, nGen, Nylon, Carbon filled, Woodfill and other filled materials.

* Consumable parts, such as PEI sheets (smooth, textured, etc.) are not covered by warranty as the coatings are designed to diminish over time unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship. Cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents, cracks, or other cosmetic damage is also not covered by the warranty. Only defective sheets on arrival are covered by warranty.

Compared to the assembly kit, the assembled printer differs only in the form in which you receive it. The printer comes pre-assembled and tested right out of the box. To start your first print, simply plug it in, run the initial calibration, and you are good to go. It is an ideal choice for businesses where there is a need to start printing as soon as possible.

Our discount program for the Original Prusa i3 assembled printer owners gives you a 10% discount on subsequent orders of the Original Prusa i3 assembled printers and selected filaments.

To enter the discount program, you only need to purchase your first Original Prusa i3 assembled printer for the full price. After the assembled printer is delivered to you, your Prusa account automatically applies the 10% discount on the assembled i3 printers. So your next assembled i3 printer will be discounted by 10% :-). Make sure to be always logged into your Prusa account, to have the discount applied.

Along, with the discount on the assembled i3 printers, the discount does apply to selected filaments too. Most importantly including our high-precision filament, the Prusament!

Most 20x4 Displays (like the Generic RepRapDiscount one Prusa uses) have two Display control pins, one for setting the Contrast, and one for turning Backlight on and off.

Seems the original RepRapDiscount guy have cut corners here, since Marlin itself did not support dimming or contrast setting. (i don"t know if Marlin or Repetier support this now, other Firmwares do)

1) If you insert the SD card to the LCD panel, are you able to access it through the LCD? If not, you need new cables or just take a look at them if they are not damaged (mainly it gets damaged when anchoring to the threaded rods with zipties) so please check that and let me know.

2) The video is with connected heatbed right? If so, you definitely have something wrong with it, now let"s just check what. if you unmount it, and remove all the screws in the corners, are you able to see some damage where M3 washers were? If you plug it in to the printer (without the screws mounted), is it working properly? If so, you need new heatbed or you can do little trick by insulating the bottom copper plane from the washers until the new one arrives.

1.) I inserted the SD card as it came, and the LCD shows "no SD inserted" when i take it out and plug it back in. I dont have a card reader on hand at the moment to try it with actual data on it ?(If it doesnt already come with anything?)

2.) The heatbed lives! without the screws attached. I have a very nice blister on my finger for proof haha So i am about to try and use some heatproof plastic as washer (With the metal washers) to see if i can get it mounted and functioning with them. Is this something i screwed up during installation? i ask just so i can let a friend know to be careful when hes assembling his
