    QIDI X-Maker Support Structures problem

    I recently purchased a QIDI X-Maker 3D printer. My first rig is a Tevo Tarantula (Spider) that I have been using for the past 2 years. When I print models that require support structures on the Tevo, the support material snaps off very easily making post processing and easy clean up. This has not been my experience thus far on the X-Maker.

    The X-Maker prints simple geometric shapes flawlessly, they look amazing. However, when I go to print complex models, this printer takes a nose dive. When I choose zigzag for support structure, for some reason it prints the supports such they are fuzed to all the areas where it's providing support. It makes it nearly impossible to remove the support material without doing significant damage to the print.

    I suspect this is a settings issue, though I'm not sure what I need to change. I really like this printer, it would be a shame to send it back if its just settings issues. I would appreciate any tips or advice.
