What happened? (feddit.de)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by PixeIOrange@feddit.de to c/3dprinting@lemmy.ml
 

Should i worry? Any suggestions for a fix? Didnt find anything because i dont know what search terms to use...

Edit: Thanks for your responses. I talked to my brother, he told me the retraction speed was too slow (25mm/s), i changed it to 40mm/s and realized i activated the wrong printer profile. Silly me. Ill do a test print now. Ill look into your suggestions if this wont help.

Read this about stringing and how to mitigate it. Happy printing!

One additional counter measure that is not mentioned in the article is doing a slight z-hop (like half the layer heigt) for travels. That can help prevent depositing the ooze-drop along the travel move, given that all other mitigations are in place and the ooze-drop is small enough. Do not hop very high, because the vertical lift will pull strings out of the nozzle otherwise.
