Ender 3 Pro

02Kitch
02Kitch over 2 years ago

So tired of screwing around with this printer. First off, head was rubbish, so new head, head better.

blow head element, get new element, goes after 2 weeks, replace again.

figure the new E3 board, NFG myself of the repair guy cant find firmware. get the shits.

buy a 4.2.7 board, install, X axis not triggering switch, check all wiring, all is ok. showing ender 3 not pro, go to upgrade, find file, no luck installing through usb slot.

turning into 1 *** way to pass my time and to make broken things.

    The Ender 3 Pro is always sold as being a great "entry" 3d printer, but really it's a tinkerer's toy that requires a lot of tweaking to get 'right' and to get 'working. Which a lot of people see as a plus…

    Basically, a normal experience with low end 3D printers, I had similar experiences like 10 years ago with a DIY 3D printer, it's a headache but definitely you can enjoy it. You need to take a break then…

    There is always the decision to be made whether the 3D printer is your hobby, or 3D printing. For the former an Ender or something similar is the perfect choice (as it can be modified however you like), for the latter you want something more reliable (the usual recommendation is a Prusa MK3S, or now an MK4), or maybe a BambuLabs (although they currently get mixed reviews in that regard).
