Hey Y’all,
Just purchased a Refurb Form 2 from Formlabs and I was super excited to get it home and start the printing process.
I had my first print finish and 2 of the 4 Keycaps were cut in half, not really thinking about it, I put the two keycaps that printed correctly into the IPA bath and threw the other two out. I then started another job that was 12 hours long, and went to work.
When I came home, the printing was going great and I had about 5 hours left in the print. When I checked on the print process again, the printing had stopped and I was greeted with everyone’s favorite error code…Error Code 41.
When I pulled the print bed off of the mount, I found this.
To answer a few questions, Yes my printer has the most up to date firmware available, I am using the Clear Resin from FormLabs and printing at 25 Microns. The print bed was cleaned between the two prints, and the Files in Preform passed all of the Structure/Support Checks.
How do I solve this, what are my next steps, and is this normal for a Form 2 with only 2 prints on it? I had so much hope for this machine and I was super excited to get to printing, but this is honestly so disappointing.
Also would like to add that I can no longer print with this machine, every-time I go to start a new print job I am again greeted with the lovely Error Code 41.
