Hello, I am a begginer eith 3D printers, I have a Wanhao Duplicator i3 and I would like to know something about this printer. I would like to know its temperatures ranges, because I’ve been searching in internet but I dont find an answer.
The real problem that I have is that Im trying to print at 77°c but the extruder stepper doesnt move. I found a temperature standar where the extruder stepper started moving, it is 150°c, and I chaged it at 100°c (the minimal that the hardware allows me) and I tried but the extruder stepper is still not moving until 150°c.
I would like to know how can I fix it, or the printing temperatures of this printer.
Thank you so much!

I don’t know what material you are trying to print at 77c. If you are printing PLA or ABS, you need to print in the 190 to 220 range.
As for ranges, the highest you want to go is 230. Anything over that, and the internal extruder tube made of PTFE will start to degrade quickly.
It is like ceramic, I know that all the materials are aroudn those temperatures, but this is like a ceramic wire.
