I have seen Makerbot printers work perfectly with supports but it is my first time using a QIDI, for some reason every time it gets to the support the printer starts printing midair, like it didn't place the supports but the building plate keeps going down:
In other words, the print goes flawlessly, but as soon as it reaches the support structures, the extrude slowly starts to print midair. No idea why
This are my support settings:

I can't figure out what it is that is messing my print when I use supports.Last edited by fontseeker; 09-21-2016 at 06:15 PM.

Some one can correct me but look a the support margin, support to model spacing and support to roof. Seems like the first or second one could be to big. In S3D the separation between the support and lower is 1 layer thickness and same for the top. Also 220 and 80 are on the upper end for PLA.

Going to try both values at 0 and a layer height of 0.1mm for the support structures to make it go a bit slower, might help. Will let you know how it goes.
As far as my temperatures, I have used 220C and 40C for the build plate and it has always gone fine.
Thanks for the help, will let you know how it turns out.
Please explain to me how to...
