The fan that is the blower on the nozzles will vary in speed. S3D does allow that. it is not either on or off only as far as I have been able to see. I used PLA/PHA just last night to build the adjustable platform jack model and had the fan at 20% for the first 4 layers and at 100% for the rest. The fan did spin at a slower speed during the first four layers. Why?? I am not sure as it is not a 3 pin fan power connection that usually controls fans. I have not disassembled the unit to check the board but the control board may very well control the fan speed by adjusting the amount of power it sends to it. I will take it apart in the coming weeks and find out.


As far as being upset by your rude reply yes I was.
