Throw your ender away and buy a good printer.
Every single thread like this is an ender.
They're shit.
Man I'm broke and I've had this thing for years Fuckin love it
You know that’s generally not helpful, right?
Like, okay. Enders are not the best printers. It’s what they have. Most of us can’t just go out and get a printer just because it doesn’t meet your standards.
People should have realistic expectations, but Enders aren’t incapable of okay-prints, and with a lot of love, some awesome prints.
This is especially not helpful since it’s probably the filament needing to be dried and temp adjustments for the plastic.
This is a useless comment... This issue has nothing to do with the brand of printer you bought, and everything to do with the settings of your printer and whether the filament is wet. A well tuned Ender will print better than a much more expensive badly configured printe with wet filament. Of course there are printers now that are much easier to get good results with, especially because they come with build in filament dryers, and automatic tuning.
