Anet A8 fan/extruder issue.

[Kyle M.]

I'm getting closer but I'm still not there. I'm currently at 220 nozzle (Inland recommends 215-225) 60 bed and 40% fan. Trying to print a calicat as the first one I did when I got the printer came out perfect. I'm getting a lot of uneven spots on the overhanging parts of the tail. No matter what I do if I go over 50% fan I get total failure. Less than 215 requires 35% fan or lower.

Edit: I tried it several more times changing cooling fan % and extrusion % and I absolutely can't get a smooth overhang. I don't want to give up on this but at the same time I'm so frustrated I kind of want to give up on it. But I know if I can get this model to print as well as it did before I'll have everything dialed in.

Is it possible that the fan is somehow shorting to another wire some how causing the problems.

I suppose it's possible.
