MakerGear Support —Prior to contacting MakerGear support, please have the following ready:

Your contact information, including email and phone number.
Your serial number (located on the back of your printer), your MakerGear order number (if applicable), and the name of the person who registered the printer.
A detailed explanation of the problem you're experiencing. If it is an extrusion problem, include the type/color of the filament you are using, the extrusion temperature, and the software you are using to run the printer. Well-lit, in-focus photos and/or video are very helpful.

Please be aware that we cannot provide support related to extrusion issues if you are using third-party filament.
