Just as another "user" observation to share.
Since you have decided the Ender 3 will be your printer, here is another thing about E3 printer I have found
to be useful that the E3 does.
Since I print very often on my E3's, I use the same SD card on each of the individual printers over and over.
The SD card not only carries the current print, but also stores
many previous prints as well for future prints.
.
When ever I add a new project to the same SD, I sometimes run the risk of that newest gcode developing an error (getting corrupt).
My first indicator that a print project is at risk, is that at some point during the print it simply stops the printing process
and the print head just sits there or it has at times moved to the left side and stops and it doesn't appear however to have been
a power glitch. It just stops where it is, at temp. and at the last gcode setting.
.
The good thing however is it is still at temp. and the "Z" axis has not moved down at all by itself or with help, so the machine
thinks it is right where it had stopped.
Since there is no actual "feedback" indicators from the steppers indicating its current location (at the time the print stopped), it will
simply start from where it stopped to the best of its ability.
.
If you catch it in time (as soon as it happens), it may still be able to begin again!
If the user moves the gantry in any way, the machine does not know this and thinks it is in the same place it was when it stopped
and will resume using the code it was at when it had the brain fart.
.
The E3 can restart the print at the last setting and continue where is last was
IF the "Z" axis has not turned at all!
If a power failure occurs and when the power comes back on, the printer will ask if you want to continue and you simply choose
yes.
If the print just stops not due to a power failure, you can treat the glitch as a power failure by switching it off and back on, then choose yes
at that point.
.
The only issue however is, if it is a small'ish print, that very first layer after the print resumes at that point, the adhesion may not be good.
It's possible you may have to add glue to the "new" joint when the print finishes.
Happy printing
Do you have any progress print pictures to share?
