I have the Taz 3 and am using Matter Control with my PC to control the printer. I have everything connected and ready to go. I set the preset temps to ABS (230\*/85\*) and press start. The temps then drop to 185\*/65\* which is not correct. It is like it is a default that I have to override. Does anyone have an idea of how to fix this as I can’t seem to find a resolution my self.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How do you like mattercontrol? I have been using it now for a few months. At first I had some issues with it, but have figured most of it out. They have come out with a new version that seems to address most of the issues I was having. I now use it over slic3r and cura. Those just gave me too many issues and too many headaches. Seems to be a well thought out slicing software.
