Cheers mate I have had the Davinci for 4 years and never used it until now, you videos have help greatly.

In all fairness, I am that stupid so I'll be in my own little special corner trying to learn everything. Haha So far your video is going to help me out a lot. I got my da vinci second hand a few years ago. The extruder head was not installed and the dude told me he couldn't figure it out. I learned a lot through trial and error. It's nice that you took the time to help people out with settings.

one more tip, i found to use repetior with da vinci 1.0a, you have to use the repetitor rev 1.0.6 as the video shows, all latest version will show connection problem. you have to find your own way to get that old version of repetior

Does anyboby know how to use this on the Davinci 2.0? i changed the firmware on mine and i need to redo the home positions but when i try to print something it only uses the first extruder even if i have it set to use the second. i Looked at all the settings under the extruder tab and i think i have it set up correctly but it wont use the second extruder. Please help!

I have a problem with my X axis on the Da vinci is a tad off when doing the auto bed level test. Do you have any ideas?

Hey Jacob, So I'm having a really weird problem where I can print fine on one end of the bed, but when I move it out to a further corner of the bed, the print gets all jerky and the x axis jumps around making the print fail. If I print close to the home point though, it prints fine. Are there any bed shape or printer settings or EEPROM settings I might have missed?

what if we cant find your printer in device manager even though its plugged in??? please help!!

In case it helps anyone, on my 1.0A it has the correct X&Y to start with (-33.00 & -12.00), but I had to adjust the Z from -3.00 to -2.50 since the bed was too low.

how can I easily calibrate after upgrading the firmware? cheers

Another great video. Good job.

Nice job on your video. Are you still using your Da Vinci Duo Printer? I'm pretty new to this. I've updated the firmware with Repetier 0.92, but I'm having trouble loading the filament (when I go to load, after the extruder heats up nothing happens although I push the filament into the nozzle). I can communicate to the printer with no problems. Thanks.

Great Work Jacob, I've successfully upgraded firmware on my MAC. A few struggles as you can imagine but got there in the end. I have Itemised the Mac issues/instructions on a word doc for Mac users if any one wants them then reply with your email. Also, to center your extruder the EEPROM Settings are X-34, Y-12 and Z depends on your calibration height but -3 is a good start. Unfortunately it seems negatives figures cannot be set on the Mac version of Repetier so I had to do this on a PC.

I know this is old but, if you still have the MAC doc, would you mind sending it to my first name @ my last name .net?

Thanks Jacob. Appreciate the info!

After messing around with the settings (it took me awhile), the best settings for printing in the center is: X home position: -25 Y home position: -10 Z home position: -3 Try these settings, then let me know.

After many hours of tweaking my Da Vinci 1.0 i was able to print PLA and go back to ABS with no problems. i still need to add a fan for PLA to make the prints even better. To print PLA using stock extruder change temp to 215c change bed temp to 65c save your profile so you can go back to ABS. change firmware extruder steps to 89.00 . i use Cura for slicing.

Do you have to version 1.0.6 or can you update

the z goes to 0 will not save. head hits glass help

Thanks for another great video! Can you make a video just showing the quality of the prints that you have gotten out of this printer? Thanks!

Hi, Jacob thanks for a briliant video. Can u maby tell me how to print offline on my da vinci with repetier host, every time i take my printer offline, my printer stops printing. Thanks:)

the xyz has a new setup now the sd card is in the middle of the card and near the top...this is I think for the older models

Thanks for the help!

Hey Jacob, I tried these settings and the extruder is still hitting the bed when I try to print, any suggestions?

Are you pc or mac? On Mac you can't put it into negative figures which really sucks, if PC try putting the 'z home pos [mm]' to -10mm to start with the gradually move your way up in .5mm increments until it gets to the right level.

I'm running windows 8. I tried this earlier but for some reason it wouldn't reposition to the new z home setting.

Hey I followed these instructions and it will print one layer then say heater decoupled and will no longer extruded but the printer head still moves as if it was extruding, anyone ever experienced this

+Joven Martinez Hey guys, i dont know if this is it but look at the Z axis setting and input the value the extruder is from the bed and - 1,2mm (thats what i have-> the nozzle is 1,2mm lifted from the bed). Hope this helps

Hey guys, I have a mac running bootcamp with windows8. It is in my windows platform in which i am using my davinci with repeteir host. I have followed the steps for my extruder to not hit the printbed but nothing happens. Can anyone help?! Thank you!
