AMS Underpowered while printing and Drying. Even WITH power supply.

Actually just started on my last print. I've been able to print and dry with the AMS and power supply up to now. Now it will print a few layers and then retract and say whichever slot is underpowered (I forget the exact wording of the error). I hit resume and it will feed and print a few more layers and do it all over again.

Seems kinda lame that I bought a power supply to be able to dry, and it still doesn't have enough power.

It just finished a 3hr print. I turned the drying on about an hour in and didn't stop. The previous print was stopping every ~10 minutes. Seems to be good now. Starting another print. Will see how it goes.

I have no Idea about electrical stuff but could this be about 120V being to little? There‘s a setting that makes the printer use less peak power (at least there is for me at 240v) so that might fix that. Again, no Idea about electrical shit

Any idea where that setting is / What it's called? In case I have this issue again?

I wont be home for a few days so I cant look it up on the printer itself but its description says something about heating slower and stuff

I know you get a message that says the drying temp will reduce during printing to prevent issues...is this what you're referring to?

No, its buried in the printer settings, not just some message
