Extruder: | |
- Nozzle Diameter: 0.40mm | |
- Extrusion Multiplier: 1.00 (can fiddle with this: if you get holes in top layers - increase, if you get blobs and the head digs into the current layer - decrease) | |
- Extrusion Width: auto | |
- Retraction: | |
- Distance: 4-6mm or less even | |
- Extra Restart Dist: 0.5 | |
- Vertical Lift: 0 | |
- Retraction Speed: 3000 | |
- Coast at end - enabled - 0.1mm | |
Layer: | |
- Primary layer height: 0.1-0.3 based on quality, usually 0.2 is fine for most stuff | |
- Top solid layers: 2 or more depending on the quality you want, if you have low infill settings you need 3 to prevent holes on the sides, can use 1 if you don't care about aspect | |
- Bottom solid layers: 2 is ok for most stuff | |
- Outline Perimeter Shells: 1 is ok for most stuff, use moreif you want more strength or if you use transparent PLA and you see the infil through it | |
- First layer Height: 90% (fiddle with it if your print doesn't stick properly, same for rest) | |
- First Layer Width: 120% | |
- First Layer Speed: 50% | |
Additions: | |
- Skirt: 1 layer, 0 or 2mm offset, 4-5-6 outlines. Useful to get the plastic flowing before the actual print or if you have small parts that don't stick (then offset = 0) | |
- Raft: use only in case it really really doesn't want to stick to the bed | |
Infill: | |
- Percentage is whatever you want/need: 0-100% | |
- Outline Overlap: 20%, use more if the infill doesn't stick to the sides properly (pretty rare) | |
- Min infill length: 5mm | |
Support: | |
- percentage: 40% is what I use, but only turn it on when needed | |
Temperature: | |
- use whatever temperature your material recommends, I usually stick to 200 for PLA | |
- for first layer you CAN use a bit more to help it stick, depends | |
Cooling: | |
- Layer 1 - a bit lower to help with sticking to the bed | |
- Layer 2 - 100% | |
Other: | |
- Default print speed: 3600 is what I use most days, if you want to slow it down for more accuracy - 1800 | |
- Outline Underspeed: 90% | |
- Support Infil: 80% - you can fiddle with this, you can even go 100% on some models/filaments | |
- X/Y Axis movement speed: 5000 | |
- Z Axis movement speed: 900 | |
- filament diameter: for better accuracy measure your filament in like 10 places with calipers and average it out (or 1.75mm by default) | |
