Hi, the load filament wizard is set to push the filament from the extruder gear to the hot end. Simply load enough to be able to secure it with the extruder lever, then load the filament with the wizard, don't push it all the way to the hot end.
You are not supposed to push the filament to the nozzle. You should insert it into the extruder, it grabs the filament, then, when it's at the very beginning of the tube, then you hit confirm and it loads it into the Printcore.
indeed. This is the stupidest mistake a user can make. Insert in to the extruder, about 1-2 cm. Press confirm and then the filament will be just shy of the nozzle head.
You can go to the extruder setup and heat up the hotend manually (not intuitive to find!). I do not use the automatic load of filament. Usually I open the lever of the extruder motor and push it directly to the hotend.
Just set temp, push the filament through, start print. Then when it starts printing close the latch or tight the spring on the extruder and youre away. Ffs you can do this on an ultimaker clone
eh, there are definitely some dumb issues it has. Like fan cable snapping from the joint due to fatigue because you've changed nozzle units too often. But then again I have around 18000 hours of printing time on a S5 so I'm kinda beating the machine. So I'm quite happy with the machine and thats in the end its quite easy to use.
@@Chrissi33004 what kind of filament is he using? How humid is it, what's the room temp, is the filament dry, lots of things to dial in irrespective of the price tag of the machine

You should only push the filament maybe 4 inches past the bowden extruder.
this is also a issue on the 2+ and 3+ the like feeder gear just absolutely destroying the filament

I regret buying the s5 with air and loading station.
Its a hunk if junk. Cant believe theg are sellable

Why not buy prusa or bambo and stop fussing with your overpriced underperforming machines?
Lol complaining about your own rubbish print because you haven't tuned the right settings. Hilarious
This is a 5k+ machine it should require ZERO tuning on your end using the stock profiles.
Who doesn’t love tuning the heck out of such an expensive printer just to be able to fulfill its only use.
The hottest of takes right here. Dude must be a brain surgeon....

isn't that black support that has speckles is the problem with setting - Z Seam Alignment ?
