How to use the Professional 3D Pen:


Troubleshooting:

My pen wont heat up.

  • Make sure you are pressing the feed button to begin heating.
  • Make sure the power cable is connected securely and the display is on.
  • If the display does not turn on, try an alternate AC to USB adapter if available.
  • If heating mode begins but current temperature does not rise, replace the nozzle.

My pen heats up, but filament does not extrude.

  • Try setting the speed control to fast.
  • Make sure the feed gear has engaged the filament and it is loading into the pen.
  • If filament gets to the nozzle and then the motor struggles or slows down, STOP and unload the filament.
  • Try cutting a fresh end on the filament.
  • If none of these suggestions help, you can try opening the service door and removing the nozzle to inspect for blockages.

If you are using PLA filament, it's good to know that recommended temperatures vary from 165°C - 190°C. Metallics are best at a lower temp (165C), where other filaments might need to be run at a higher temp.

If you see smoke or bubbling in the filament, the temperature is too high.

If the filament seems thick and slow, it is likely that the temperature is too low.

The below video instructions have been helpful in clearing PLA clogs.
