Hi everyone, has anyone else had the issue that if using Chitubox to slice the Photon S will just not print anything and then the 2k screen exposure will stop working properly? It looks like this and the only thing that got the test back to normal was re-installing the latest firmware. However, the Photon does not even seem to heat up at all, no odor I expect from the resin in use, and I do not hear the bottom layers creating any suction. After a 40-50 layers I have stopped a few prints to find there is nothing on the build plate or the FEP. They just are not printing at all. I have mostly been using the Elgoo ABS-Like Grey and the settings are verbatim from the Google Doc. Since having to re-install the firmware nothing will print. The ribbon cable for the 2k is intact. Room temp is in the 20s C (68-70 F).
The Photon Workshop just crashes when I try to slice something. And sometimes when just dropping an STL in it. I did not have that problem before I started to use Chitubox, is there a driver conflict or something? Two weeks in and this purchase was pretty much instant regret. Any recommendations for firmware you all are using successfully? I've tried the default 2 dot something, 4.18 and 5.0.2. After about two dozen attempted prints there's only been three I would call acceptable and those were early and poorly supported as I have been learning. The FEPs have been tuned to ~350hz w/ Spectrum from the apple app store. I have to wait for more of those to come in now. Gone through six FEPs now I think between one that got melted in the corner, the one it came with was creased and then not finding a way to actually tune the things until a day or two ago. Interestingly, the only decent prints i got were before I had a way to measure the frequency. I don't like just returning things but I doubt there is problem forum I have not read on the Photon S at this point. I have had a few ok prints so I am not looking to blame this on any of the STLs themselves, this feels like an issue with the device. and yes, before it said the build plate is level and zero'd.
Any ideas? Please and thank you.
