3D printers are tools that make it possible to create any object from 3D models. However, they also have their challenges, especially when it comes to errors and problems that can occur during the printing process. Fortunately, there is now a new technology that can help solve these problems: ChatGPT
ChatGPT is a language model algorithm, from OpenAI. It is able to understand and respond to natural language, which means it is able to answer questions and solve problems related to 3D printers as well.
One of the great advantages of ChatGPT is that it can work very quickly. If you have a problem with your 3D printer, you can simply type in a question and get an answer within a few seconds. This is especially useful if you need a quick solution to a problem that is affecting the printing process. Lengthy back and forth Googling until you come across the right website is no longer necessary.
Another great plus of ChatGPT is its ability to reply in different languages, which can be especially beneficial for users who don’t speak English very well, since most forums and websites on the subject are in English.

After several failed attempts, the 3D model still detaches from my print bed. Of course, I can now google as usual, but then I usually come to a page that first describes in detail problems with solutions that do not fit 100%.
If you ask ChatGPT on the other hand, he answers quickly and precisely:
My 3D printer is having trouble with the model separating from the print bed. What can I do to fix this?
There are a few reasons why a model can separate from the print bed while it’s being 3D printed. Some solutions to fix this issue could include:
- Increase the adhesion of the print bed: You can do this by heating the bed or by using adhesives such as a solution of water and PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) or an adhesive film.
- Make sure the nozzle is clean and free of buildup: Contaminants in the nozzle can cause the filament to not be extruded properly and affect adhesion.
- Check the settings for layer resolution and print pressure: You may need to adjust the settings to get better adhesion.
- Check the bed calibration settings: Make sure the distance between the nozzle and the print bed is set correctly.
- Check the quality of the filament: You may be using a filament that is not suitable for your 3D printer or that has poor quality.
It’s important to note that there may be multiple reasons why a model separates from the print bed. A thorough check of your print settings and the use of adhesives can usually fix the problem.
My 3D printer is creating models with small holes in them. What could be causing this?
There are several reasons why your 3D printer is creating models with small holes. Some possible causes could include:
- Nozzle issues: If the nozzle is clogged or damaged, this can cause the print pressure to be misaligned and result in holes in the model.
- Filament issues: If the filament is damaged or not stored properly, it can cause unevenness in the printing process and result in holes in the model.
- Printer settings: If the printer’s settings are not configured properly, this can cause the model to have holes. Check the settings for layer resolution, print pressure, and bed calibration.
- Heat buildup: If the printer is not adequately cooled, this can cause the filament to expand and result in holes in the model.
- Insufficient adhesion: If the model is separating from the print bed, this can cause holes in the model. Check the adhesion of the print bed and make sure it is properly set.
It’s important to note that there may be multiple reasons why your 3D printer is creating models with holes. A thorough check of the settings, nozzle, and filament can help to locate and fix the problem.
As you can see, CHATGPT gives clear indications for possible solutions. Within a few seconds you get a first estimation how to fix the error. Especially for specific questions this is a considerable relief.
