The last couple of days I've had two seperate instances of the printer stopping mid print. It doesn't look to be hardware related, there are no noises, attempted but halted moves, etc. It just stops in the middle of an extrusion at different times in the print (the first time it happened 4 hours in to a 4 1/2 hour print, the second time happened 3 minutes into a 10 minute print). When it happens, the repetier log window is stopped dead, with no commands being sent to the printer. To re-establish comms, I have to disconnect and reconnect to the printer.
So I'm leaning towards two possibilities:
1) There is a hardware comms issue (USB Cable) and Repetier is smart enough to stop sending commands when it detects a disconnect.
2) There was a software update recently to Repetier, was there a bug introduced?
If no one else has seen any issues running the latest Repetier host software than it's more than likely closer to #1.
