I am interested to know what problems people regard as being the most irritating about 3D printing, whether it is problems to do with using the printer, problems with using software or with materials. Also If something needed to be changed about the way 3D printing process currently operated what would people like to see changed?

So if nozzle blockages are your main gripe with 3D printing how do you think this problem can be eleviated?

Hi @Andley603 ,
This is to do with the wiring of the stepper motors to the stepper motor drivers. Basically you need to reverse the port wiring. Here is a video from Printrbot that will give some explanation.
We don't know your board or stepper motors so check the wiring but this is the basic issue.
