I’ll check that but the machIne is only a couple weeks old so I hope I didn’t get a defective part. The filament moves if I manually extrude though.
In which case, it could definitely due to the model being not water tight(should show up clearly
in Cura’s layer display). Also, there are rare cases, some plugins, or previous setting cause
an issue with Cura, in which case, you could either switch to quick print and then make changes
by switching to the expert settings. But if none of this fixes the issue, that to rule out any model
related issue, just try printing some known good models. Also keep a watch on the fan(sometimes
having too much fan at lower temp, could easily clog nozzle, and grind the filament, making it not
extrude afterwards).

In case you didn’t see my mail, I’ve printed your model on an UM3 using Cura 2.4 and it worked out just fine. So, nothing wrong with the file. I also tried it without support to see how the printer would react. After the skirt, as expected, it simply produced a mess of PLA.
Thanks for the tip. Couple of other people printed the exact same file without any issues. I have been able to print some other models but my machine seems to randomly dislike some. Someone gave advice to checkfor heat creep so I’m going to do that too.
Yeah sorry I just got to it. I forgot to ask how did you print it? Sd card or direct connect?
I just noticed something you said here. If cura recognizes printer. How do I know if it recognizes my printer?
I’ll try that tonight thank you. Nothing else I do is working so why not lol.
Well, recognise is perhaps the wrong word, but under settings you can select the printer.
