I went to use my printer for the first time in a month and the filament had become brittle and snapped. Then I had massive issues in not being able to thread the filament into the head and the printer refused to print. This being the second time I have suffered a similar problem with brittle filament after a period of non use
Well good old google came to the rescue, the first tutorial was not much use, the second showed 3 options, the easy one did not help. However the next option involved taking the printer head appart. This filled me with dread but what other option had I.
I took it slowly referring to the tutorial several/many times. A bit fiddley and daunting for a numpty like me, but in the end was quite straight forward. Glad to report all OK and working
For anyone who suffers the same issue, which he says will be a common occurrence here is the link
