  We had a report of the 3d printer computer being down - on investigation it had malware from someone attempting to install Pulse Browser on 5/16. Please do not install software on lab computers without the station champion or operations go ahead. For now the system is repaired and Dr. Strange's profile has been updated but the damage this malware did to edge will necessitate a full clean reinstall of orca slicer. I have replaced the hotend on Dr Strange as well with the spare from stores, I still have an additional hotend on order to replace that one. I have also repaired and calibrated the 3d print pen and it works great, please be advised that you can use PLA or ABS "only" do not atttempt to use PETG, ASA, PLA+, PLA Pro, any carbon fiber variant of filaments, etc. Only use stock plain PLA or ABS.

I have located a replacement filament runout sensor for ender dragon I just need some additional time to install it.

I thought the runout sensor on Dragon was working. Darn. Btw, unplug it to bypass if necessary

It's been toast for a while and unplugged but we have a spare.
