fan question.

Post by JohnnyRobot » Wed Mar 04, 2015 6:45 pm

Hey everybody,

My material cooling fan has "released it's magic smoke"

Is it okay if I run my printer with it unplugged?

I read somewhere, in some context, that this could be a fire hazard.

Its not a fire hazard to run without it. The motor-cooling fan is in series with the electronics fan though, and those need to both be there.
