First time ever having any issues. Just finished a print with no trouble and went to print again a few hours later and my taz 5 won’t move on the x axis. Just vibrates. I tried moving it manually and it barely moves with force. Any suggestions? First time posting. Thxs in advance from for any help ---

If you power off the printer can you move it? If not, check for a broken motor shaft. ---
