weird - perhaps it's down to different brands of petg.
Tried colorfab and esun so far - esun definitely less stringy.
It also sticks better to the printbite and didn't show any sign of warp...
okay just started using the esun petg I bought a week or two back.
And what makes the difference as far as stringing goes isn't how far you retract it - but how FAST you retract it.
I'm...
have you actually measured the actual width of the extruded petg ?
Seems to me you're pretty much just changing things at random without any actual logic.
The extrusion width setting should...
okay you've got print speed at 40mm/s and movement speed at 150mm/s.
At what point does it get a chance to retract the petg before the carriage zooms off somewhere else.
Try dropping your carriage...
