What should I do if the touch screen of the resin printer is faulty? In some cases of bumping or contamination, the touch screen may malfunction, making it impossible to interact. In this case, replacing it is a good solution to get your printer back to normal as soon as possible. In this guide, we will walk users through Anycubic Photon M3 Plus’s touchscreen replacement to help you install a new screen, restore interaction, and also allow the printer to work.

When it doesn't work properly, contact the machine's technical service staff to determine a specific solution.
