I just installed Dual z axis trying to get it aligned, my coupler is all the way down, not sure if its suppose to be. My z rod does not allow me to go down any further to reach that bottle

coupler is not supposed to be all the way down

#

lift it up a little bit and tighten it

summer thorn

bottom half attached to the motor shaft, top half attached to the z-rod

#

best way to check if its attached correctly is to peek through the slit in the middle of the coupler

#

you shouldnt see any shaft or rod when its installed correctly

#

is there a script that tells my printer how much time is left on the printing job

raven maple Dec 16, 2022, 3:21 AM

#

as well as display file name

Like on your printer or on your computer or phone?

#

There is a program called octoprint which can send information to your phone, you can install a camera and monitor your printer as well

#

But you need to install a raspberry pi to your printer

raven maple Dec 16, 2022, 6:01 AM

#

on my printer itself

#

i have this but i want the time to go away after a while and show the file name

I'm not familiar with the ender3 interface, you can try asking in #chat-printing it will reach more people
