Late on the 28th it sadly came to my attention that some users were experiencing severe problems with their printer communication after upgrading to the 1.2.14 release just published earlier that day. I immediately stopped the roll out of 1.2.14 and went to investigate.

Are there any known issues with the model editor? In the process of slicing STL files, if I say "next" after setting the print parameters, it gets stuck on "loading model". If I choose "skip model editor", it slices just fine. For reference, I'm using the CuraEngine slicer and the Micro3D printer profile, if that makes any difference.

Also, speaking of "severe problems with printer communication", I'm now getting "Machine State: Offline: Too many consecutive timeouts, printer still connected and alive?" all over the place :( I think I was previously a few builds behind (maybe 1.2.12?) and hadn't printed in a while; I was prompted to update tonight... checked the release notes and pulled the trigger.

Considering you are referring to a Micro3D, my guess is you are using the M33 FIO plugin (that would also explain the reference to the model editor, OctoPrint doesn't have one by default). I don't know what exactly the plugin needs to do in order to make the printer function with OctoPrint, but it sounds like you should make sure you run the most recent version of the plugin (I know there were issues there that donovan fixed) and if that doesn't help report back to the plugin's issue tracker. Having no access to an M3D, I fear I can't really help you there myself.
