    that normally happens from the print not sticking to the bed properly, these plates stick well at 60-65c for pla but you have to change it while it is going through the starting process and again after the 1st layer! I do not know what is wrong with these Companies making the Firmware constantly void out your settings while printing when it comes to heat settings but it pisses me off beyond measure and has caused a few lost prints, even Bambu will reset your temps back to 55c I have had to prevent the starting of a blob of death on them multiple times because of it!!

      Yes it's frustrating that the firmware resets the bed temp.

    I watched the video and find it very informative. I was kinda expecting links in the description for the new parts you installed. I have 2 printers. I have the max and the plus. Is it possible to help me decide which linear rail parts i need?

    change firmware to opennept4une.. looks like your hotend wasnt correctly assembled originally. either way opennept4une is the only way to go with any neptune 4.

      I use open Neptune. That nozzle was from factory. I use Microswiss hotend now.

      the instructions you get with it tells you to check all of these things before printing. it's 100% user error. he didn't have bed leveling knobs tightened down enough to begin with.

      ​@@SparQz yes you are correct in stock form you have to check, adjust and mess with the machine constantly. Now that I have upgraded the printer, it works without all the adjustments, checking and messing with it. I now just print. Works like it should now 😅
