Review on 🖨️ Upgrade JGAURORA 3D Printer - Impressive 12x12x12 inch (6in) Printing Capability by Onsommoshit Mathews

I am new to the world of 3D printing and this is my first 3D printer. After doing a lot of research on different printers and reading many reviews, I settled on the JGAurora A5S as many of the reviews indicated that it is good for beginners and also offers good print quality. From what I can tell in the short time I've had it, the following are my observations and experiences. The printer arrived well packaged in a sturdy foam-coated cardboard box. Everything was well protected and in good condition when I opened the box. All parts were present and a sheet was included to show me the building process. Assembly was straightforward, I assembled it and switched it on within 30 minutes. It came with an SD card and USB stick which I then used to install the JGcreat slicing software and view the instruction manual (although the instruction manual is only about assembly - it doesn't really give any indication of actual use of the device) . the printer, which is my biggest complaint so far and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 - combined with additional difficulties I had with the printer). When I installed their software on my computer, I was prompted to choose my printer model. from the drop down so it can auto fill some options for cutting and printing but there was no option for the A5S and I had to select the older A5 model instead. Not sure if this is causing some of my printing issues or not as I'm new to the hobby and admittedly still don't understand what all the options mean or what settings to use. Print out the included test pattern from the included SD card in about 12 minutes and was very impressed with the result. I enjoyed trying to print additional patches, but unfortunately I couldn't get the device to print anything other than a test patch from this original SD card. I tried downloading a few (4) different files from Thingiverse that appeared to be fairly basic prints (2 different thread clips and 2 different playing card holders). I downloaded them using JGcreat software, cut them and saved them as .gcode files to the SD card and tried to print. Something went wrong here. The printer recognized the files, allowed me to select them for printing, but didn't print. The platform and nozzle warmed up, the print went from 0% to 100% and said the print was complete, but it didn't move at all and actually didn't print anything. This happened with every file I tried. Иногда, вместо предыдущей проблемы, принтер вообще не нагревался и просто непрерывно считал, как если бы он был в процессе подготовки к печати, но никогда не делал ничего, кроме счета, пока я, наконец, не нажимал кнопку "Отмена" (я ждал целых 30 minutes). It's possible I missed a step by admitting I'm totally new to this, or it could be a software issue (I don't know if A5 should be chosen over A5S). is causing the problem), but I have no way of troubleshooting or finding out what's wrong as there is no user manual to guide me. Also, I downloaded Cura version 4.0 and tried to print each file with that software instead of JGcreat and got the same results. Overall, while the printer was easy to set up and test, I'd say it's good for beginners. It seems that you should already have a lot of knowledge about both the 3D printing process and the mechanics of how these machines work and the software required. I was expecting to be able to print the finished files and then learn how to make my own over time, but it seems like a lot to learn before you can really get started as a beginner. I will say that their tech support is very responsive. I found a Facebook page for JGAurora printer users and explained my problem, asked for advice and received replies from both other users and JGAurora Technical Support. I'll try to review the suggestions I've received and research more about the process until I can get it working. Overall I think this is a good printer, I just wish it was a little more user friendly. for beginners and contains a user manual that explains the settings and helps you to use the printer and the supplied software. I'm optimistic that I'll work this out with tech support and would still recommend this printer with the caveat that you have to be really willing to do a lot of research yourself and have a solid understanding of 3D printing before you process start.
