I am 100% a noob. I just purchased a Ender 3 Pro. I ordered PETG on accident. My PLA prints nice. PETG not so nice. I have read lots of articles and watched lots of videos. None of them seem to work for me. Can you take a look at the attached files and tell me if I am running to hot/cold , to fast/slow or to thick. I have attached my settings on the screen. I tried 230c all the way up to 248c on the temperature. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi monkerz,
Seems to me that your extruder is a little bit too close to the bed.
The best way to determinate what temperature is the most suitable for each material in your printer is doing a temperature test.
You can find files for print tower temperature tests over the Internet in repositories like Thingiverse.
A tower test print makes different prints going from X to Y temperature, increasing for example +10ºC in each stage, so then you compare them to determinate which prints the best for you.
Let me know if you have any trouble with it.
Best regards.
hmm, bed temp should be 85c
printspeed 40mm/s MAXIMUM
try 30mm/s to start with.
First layer speed S-L-O-W Say 10%
Also what surafce are you printing on ?
