Printing Issues

Hi,

This seems really strange. I'm having very few failed prints, and really only when I obviously messed up myself.

Now, I don't know what exactly is wrong on your setup. But let me take some guesses...
If there are areas of solid Resin where there is no picture, it means that still some light came through the display. As you already got your display replaced, I don't think the display is actually broken... Anyhow, I would suggest to use the display test picture in the tools menu and verify that it is shown correctly.

If the display works correctly, then one thing I could imagine is this: I noticed that it is possible to miscalibrate the z axis in a way that it goes down too much and pushes down the display. If that might be the case for you, this could cause the display to bend and with that fail to operate. This could result in areas with light passing through even if it shouldn't. At the same time this could cause the first layers with longer exposure time to not being printed properly and with that fail to glue the print to the build plate. Perhaps try to recalibrate (did you perhaps forget about saving the calibration by pressing z=0 after adjusting the height? This happened to me a few times). Also try to calibrate it with a bit more space. Maybe using two sheets of paper instead of one.

The last thing that comes to mind is if your resin has passed due date?

Oh, and also. You're you're using resin fresh out of the bottle? And did you shake it before filling it into the vat?

Hope this helps.Good luck.

If nothing helps, perhaps take some pictures and attach them here...
