Force Unload Process For F123 3D Printer

Force Unload Process For F123 3D Printer

In some cases, you may be directed by our technicians to perform a 'force unload' procedure in your material bays of your F Series 3D printer. This process resets some values in the firmware that may be causing printing problems.

To perform this procedure, follow the steps below. We also have a video on the process that can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5LBieyBgeE

1. Tap the material button from the left side menu


2. Tap on the material bay:


3. Unload the material in this bay and remove it from the screen.

4. Now, from the same material screen, press Maintenance


5. Press Force Unload 4 times in a row. Note that you will likely see an indication that the button was pressed, nothing else will obviously happen. Just wait a few seconds in between presses and do this 4 times in a row.


6. Repeat this process for the other bays in the machine. Then reload the material and try a print.
