I have recently acquired an Mbot Cube 3D Printer through a friend of mine. No matter what I do, I can not get the printer to work properly. The bed is level, the already destroyed build plated has been covered with glass for smooth prints, and bed adhesion is not a problem. I have tried multiple different slicers. Mbot Print creates .x3g files that the printer can not read, while Makerbot Desktop creates prints with extreme underextrusion and poor layer adhesion. Makerware was the one slicer I have had remote success with, and this was with a desktop fan blowing directly at the print in order to give cooling adequite enough to not melt the print entirely. I can not print with a lower temperature, as the plastic will barely extrude at all. I am using 1.75mm transparent blue foxsmart PLA and am not using a raft as the software recommends. The pictures of the print attatched show the latest attempted print, a part cooling fan, and the underextrusion that I can not avoid. The first layer sticks extremely well, however there are some parts of the bottom layer which just do not extrude at all. Also, the parts can not be printed at anything less than .3 layer height, or else they will not extrude enough plastic to stick at all. Please ask for any printer settings you need. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
