The robot apocalypse is upon us!
It appears that the company had a cloud outage and it confused the printers, some tried to download their last job and reprint it, which was sometimes on top of the already-printed job, others just started slamming their print mechanism against its movement stops, potentially causing damage.
Were I in the market for a 3D printer, I think I would prioritize NO CLOUD DEPENDENCY. Granted, you sometimes start jobs to print overnight, I'd definitely power it off when not in use.
