Walked in to check on my new Form3 printer and see how far along it was with the print. Instead of a usual printing layer # of layer’s info, I was aghast to see a display inviting me to set up my printer, as if for the first time.

Had the print stopped and been lost for some reason? I looked on Dashboard and it said the printer was still printing!

Hoping I would get lucky, I pressed cancel on the printer setup dialog. Then the printer showed me the print status I was expecting to have seen in the first place. It appears to be printing, the #layers is incrementing upwards.

Needless to say, this probably isn’t something that should have happened.
