Thanks for the response,

I am quite a tech savvy person, but am a complete rookie when it comes to code. Could you walk me through the steps of doing this as I have no idea where to start.

Thanks

I've heard kisslicer works as an alternative but I am unsure of how.
Could someone give step by step instructions on how to do this?
Or if you know if an alternative slicer we can use with a 2nd gen cube, let us know.

Thanks

Hi dude,
The problem for me was the filament itself. Is the filament your using pure white? Because I found going for a more translucent PLA seemed to do the trick

Hi,
I went with filaprint, it's quite good. Just finished printing this morning and I am very impressed

hi all,

sorry about the late replies. I ended up getting a new filament instead which seemed to do the trick! i think it is slightly thinner. Also, id recommend people going for the slightly more translucent filament as this is what worked for me.

Its printing fine right now.

Thanks for all the help dan, you really are a penny saver!

do i have to remove the fan or anything? or can i just use the flat wrench things that came with it? and im using technologyoutlet premium filament

(http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00I8MRPDM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00)

I heard a clicking sound yes.

Now I have another problem. When I try to load the filament, nothing comes out, i think there may be a jam somewhere. I tried using that thin rod to see if anything comes out but i have no luck.

Any ideas?

Filament stopped coming out the print head after a bit. I assume because the filament is too thick? What do I do? I bought 1.75 PLA. Someone help!!
