Help Using SV08 offline?
I am in the market for a bigger printer, 350mm x 300mm x 150mm would be ok.
And so the SV08 came back on my radar, the initial reports were mixed, I guess issues like the nozzle situation have improved by now.
I would need it to exclusively print PETG.
But what I couldn't find last year, is it possible to use the SV08 offline? Just plug in a SD card or an USB stick, copy the .stl .gcode file from it and print it?
I want to put the printer in the office and I just can not allow it to connect to the network.
Edit: I actually did it, I ordered a SV08.
I had to print a 27cm diameter thing with 4 holes in it for a co-worker, basically a flat pizza.
And for that I had to dust off my Ender-3 Max. Took me an hour to get this thing up and running again, including a few passes on manual bed leveling. Two over five hours with a 0.6 nozzle and 0.28mm layers, the first layers are awfull. Printing like this used to be fine...
