I'm having a rather strange issue in that the printer pauses randomly during prints. This was first noticed when printing a large and complicated model (from SD). Since then a 20 mm calibration cube has been printed (from USB) with no issues (paused briefly after printing the skirt), it was used in conjunction with M92 G-code command to calibrate the stepper motors. Now i'm trying to print a temperature tower but it pauses multiple times even on the first layer (tried USB and SD). How do i ensure that the printer does not pause during prints?

Here's a link to a video of the printer pausing (trying to print a temperature tower).

Slicer details:

  • Ultimaker Cura 4.0
  • Also tried slic3r 1.3 32 bit
  • The temperature tower had a change temperature at Z injected into the G-code but none of the others did.

Printer details:

  • Anycubic S
  • Firmware 1.1.2
  • filament PLA+
  • firmware reprap/marlin

I had a similar problem some time ago. The problem in my case was, that in the slicer I had a minimum layer time, which was pausing the printer until that time had passed. I can't remember the name of the settings and I'm not at home right now, but the slicer can either print full speed and pause or it can slow down, to maintain a minimum layer time. I guess the idea is to give the plastic time to cool down.
