What to do if my 3D Systems ProJet x60 has delamination issues?
- S
  Stuart NormanAug 1, 2025
  If you're experiencing delamination (layers splitting apart) with your 3D Systems Printer, it might be due to a print head caked with Core, or a pause in network communications. To resolve this, check your PC settings as the printer may be pausing while waiting for additional data. Another cause might be core buildup on the print head, a failed print head, or an electrical issue within the printer. Clean the service station to resolve this.

  Ronald BurtonAug 8, 2025
  If you are getting print head errors or weak parts from your 3D Systems Printer, it could be due to a dirty print head, often caused by a service station that isn't cleaning the head properly. The first thing you should do is thoroughly clean the service station.

Why does my 3D Systems ProJet x60 vacuum have low suction?
- D
  davidlynchAug 16, 2025
  If the vacuum in your 3D Systems Printer has low or no suction, it usually means the Debris Separator needs to be emptied and cleaned, or that the vacuum hose is plugged or damaged. Remove the Debris Separator and empty the contents into a waste receptacle. Also, turn the printer power off.

What to do if my 3D Systems Printer binder cartridge is full but the software says it's empty?
- L
  lewismaryAug 25, 2025
  If your 3D Systems Printer's binder cartridge is full but the 3DPrint software indicates it's empty, it's usually caused by a damaged binder cartridge or a failure in the binder cartridge pocket. Try removing and reseating the binder cartridge to fix it.
