-== about 1.75mm filament ==+=== can it print 1.75mm filament ​===
  
-To print 1.75mm filament, a different [[https://​www.lulzbot.com/?​q=products/​budaschnozzle-20-ptfe-tube-175mm-filament|PTFE-Tube]] would be needed. However, Lulzbot no longer manufactures or sells them. Conceivably they are easy to make yourself from aluminum or PTFE with a lathe. Seeing as their newest [[https://​www.lulzbot.com/​products/​lulzbot-taz-single-extruder-tool-head-v2|Hexagon Hotend]] does not even mention the option of printing anything but 3mm filament, Lulzbot seems to have completely abandoned support for anything other than 3mm filament. +**SORRY NO**

-Quote from Lulzbot-Sales 2015-09-25: > I do apologize, but we no longer carry those tubes. We have tested several filaments on our printers, and prefer the 3 mm size, as it much easier to work with.+

 +===== Known Problems =====
 +
 +  * Metal Platform holding print-bed is bent at all corners
 +    * this makes leveling harder, as the bending angle is different in all four corners
 +    * this means that the Z-offset (screw below Z-Endstop on controller-side) needs to be set lower that it originally was
 +      * this means, when z-leveling, the extruder-header goes lower than it was designed for and sometimes makes hurtful noises
 +  * Folien gehört getauscht
 +    * muss aufgeheizt werden auf 60°C bevor neue Folien aufgeklebt wird, sonst bilden sich blasen
