New Build, printer randomly stopping mid print

Hi, recently received 3x of the new Mini printers. Two work great, the third has an issue

printing the provided benchy file, the printer randomly moves off the print and parks in the air. claims its still printing, nozzle and bed remain heated.

the screen is mostly responsive, but selecting either of the available options (pause or stop) do nothing. it just sits there until a reset. print has failed twice now, at slightly different print stages. there are no error messages and it seems to leave the printer hot indefinitely which is a bit concerning

After reset everything appears normal, nozzle is not plugged or anything.

attached video to see it in the stuck state.

Thanks!

If you are printing from USB, I would guess this is the faulty USB issue. Try a different USB stick.

Glitchy USB stick was indeed the issue.
