Printbite ... wont bite!
After having a few issues with over-adhesion to the bed, and some resulting messy printing I havew bought myself a sheet of printbite.....which I am told is a much better surface for printing on.
My problem now is I cannot get anything to adhere to it properly. As soon as the thing starts lay down an outline, it is pulling it up and dragging it behind the print head.
I am sure this is a setting issue....but I have been trying a variety of settings and can't seem to find the sweet spot here.
I am printing PLA with a head temp of 200 and a print bed set to 70. Before, I was printing well with 60 on the bed and 190 extruder temp. I upped the extruder temp to get a better joint between layers. I upped the bed a fraction as the printbite adds some thickness to the bed, and I was concerned the full heat was not going to get through. Printer is a Wanhao Dupolicator I3.
And yes...I did re-level the bed!
The printbite is held down with bulldog clips at all 4 corners
Anu suggestions to get a better result?
