@Aaron-Stewart what happens if you use the filament load function and tell it to preheat for PETG? Does it not heat and extrude whatever is in there? I'd probably disconnect the feed tube from above the hotend during that preheat program and use the end of a small (1.5mm) allen key to poke whatever is stuck, down into the hot nozzle. Worth a shot if you plan on binning the hotend anyway.

RE: Tina2plus nozzle replacementposted in TINA2 Serials
@陆 The entina website mentions it supports 0.2mm - 0.6mm nozzles but the online store only sells the 0.4mm hotend. They are MK8 nozzles so I assumed I could remove the nozzle from the hotend and add a 0.2mm if I wanted, but it sounds like you are saying the nozzle can't be replaced on its own. If that's the case, where can I buy an official hotend with a 0.2mm nozzle?

RE: Lychee profile for Tina2 Plusposted in Slicer Softwre
@陆 Thanks for that. I used the Tina2S profile that comes with Prusa, modified to suit the Tina2 Plus and my preferences, then saved as Tina2 Plus profiles

RE: Cannot connect to WiFi and after 5 hours on the robot chat and getting nowhere ,so cannot use the printer or the polo print app ,posted in TINA2 Serials
@User1234 I think it only connects to 2.4Ghz wifi networks. Your router is most likely broadcasting a 2.4Ghz network anyway, alongside your main 5Ghz or whatever you use. Try that.

RE: Larger spool holderposted in TINA2 Serials
@clint-hanzel I modified a filament box instead, to lower the feed hole (with a pneumatic push-to connector) to suit the low height of the Tina2 Plus filament feed. This box will take a 1 kg roll and keeps the filament at 10% humidity at all times. It's working very well.

RE: AMS Machine…?posted in TINA2 Serials
@SpoodyHollow I don't see how it would be possible without a firmware update to have the Tina2 Plus support automatic filament changes mid print, unfortunately. I currently use a filament box which I modified to add a feed hole (with pneumatic push-to connector) lower down the box, and to the side, to better suit the low height of the Tina2 filament feed system. Works nicely, and keeps my filament at 10% humidity at all times. As a bonus, this box can take 1kg sized rolls, which is what I'll be moving to once all of my Weedo 250g rolls are used up.

RE: TINA2 Plus Slicersposted in TINA2 Serials
@apple_user_1775184850 I got a Tina2 Plus last month. I started with the Tina2S profile that exists in Prusa slicer, modified it to suit the Tina2 Plus (and suit my own preferences for speed etc) and saved it as a Tina2 Plus profile. Well it seems Prusa has multiple sub profiles in a way as the printer and filament profiles are separate, so I've a Tina2 Plus profile for each. I've had no issues.

RE: Lychee profile for Tina2 Plusposted in Slicer Softwre
@陆 Thanks, I'll try it. I've read that Prusia and Orca are better slicers but I'll try Cura if it's got better support for a Tina2 Plus profile.

Lychee profile for Tina2 Plusposted in Slicer Softwre
Hi. I use Lychee Slicer (Plus) and am hoping someone has a profile suitable for the Tina2 Plus printer.
As a secondary ask, what's the best Slicer for the Tina2 Plus that works with Linux. I'm using Linux Mint. I noticed Wiibuilder only supports Windows and MacOS.
