Update: TL;DR: I cleaned the z-axis, replaced the nofep, installed the latest Chitubox (2.1) and cleaned up my profile to get it working
Hello, I hope someone will see this and be able to at least point me in the tight direction. As at this point I’m becoming desperate.
My Epax E10 4k is acting up, and I do not know why.
Part of the print is fine (see images) and then other parts are just stopped at a certain layer, with the rest stuck to the noFep.
I tried different prints, to make sure it wasn’t a layering problem, but alas… each single print suffered from the issue. The larger prints would ‘hang’ over non-printed layers…
I recalibrated my printer, changed the fep…
The one difference from before is the resin. I used to buy epax hard and tough, but my regular resin dealer doesn’t sell them anymore, heck it seems it is no longer available in europe. So I switched to the next best thing on the Epax compatibility list: eSun hard and tough.
I eventually ended up removing my slicer (Chitubox basic) and install the latest and greatest after cleaning up my profile. So literally starting anew.
Aside from changing te resin, I didn’t modify any other settings to begin with, so my config was rather vanilla.
After taking these steps (and cleaning the z-axis and replacing the nofep again) everything seems to be working fine now.
Cleaning the axis and a new nofep didn’t seem to do anything, so I think it was just a crappy version of the slicer.

I did select different settings for the other resin. I checked both in the app and on Epax’s website, and my settings are aligned
Posting a screenshot of your settings may help to see what is going on. And pics of some calibration prints.
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
