Hello yes my MESA class is having a hard time getting the nozzles to print something without clogging up halfway through. Like we've tried everything we could think of, from smaller objects to no supports to disassembling and reassembling a 3D printer to changing the nozzles to even changing and cleaning out the hoses and plastic wires.

We are trying to avoid calling I.T. at our school cuz they usually make things even worse instead of actually fixing it. So any suggestions as to how to fix our machines?

And before you ask, yes I manually changed the temperature in our printing program to 210 Celsius for Right Extruder and 60 Celsius for Platform and it still isn't working.

doesn’t sound like an IT issue. Sounds like somethings wrong with the electronics of the printer

Yeah. Literally everyone in our class has tried telling our idiot teacher that but noooo she's hellbent on calling I.T. and we're all sitting here with our heads in our hands. Anyways, do you know of a way to "reset" the electronics of the printer? Turning it on and off again didn't necessarily work.

there’s always the reboot but turning it on and off doesn’t do that

Do you know how then? The 3D printers are Flashforge-Creator Pro, if that matters.
