Usually, with our glue on the heating bed, bed temperature 70 degrees Celsius is
ok for printing ABS(let nozzle cooling fan be off), and room temperature is ok for
PLA(let nozzle cooling fan be full on).
Printing ABS, please apply more glue on the bed, with acrylic cover and door on.
Printing temperature for ABS usually is 230 degrees, but depends on filament
supplier's advice. ABS is more difficult to print as it will warp especially for big size
object. Usually you can choose to print object with raft as support type in settings
in cura or repetier host. Printing speed not faster than 50 mm /s is better for
quality.
Printing PLA, there will be more risk to have the extruder clogged. As PLA
will expand when heated in the first time, but it will be hard to be melt again even
you use higher temperature. So sometimes it expand forever and let the extruder
be clogged. That’s why we recommend you not to let filament stay in the hot
extruder long time if not printing. Printing speed not faster than 80 mm /s is better
for quality. Printing PLA not more than 200 degree, usually 180-190 degree is
the best. Setting a printing temperature above 230-245degree for PLA is starting
to get into bad territory as the plastic will start to change properties if left in the
nozzle for too long and can cause clogs.
Printing travel speed(not printing speed) 100 mm/s is good for printing quality, if
faster travel speed, you may need to tighten belt set screw after sometime
printing.
But please don’t print in too low speed for long time. Because of too low printing
speed, the stepper motor works in a sympathetic vibration mode and makes the
noise. This is not good for motor and its driver. Long time printing in very low
speed (below 20mm/s) will cause the printing randomly stopped .
Our printer has two extruders, which may cause the other nozzle knock the print
during printing especially for big or tall object. You can preheat the other
extruder which is not for printing in about 170 degrees, so the other nozzle
will not ruin your print.
There are two articles of printing tips in SD card, please kindly check them. BIBO
3D printer uses the same slicer software Cura as Ultimaker, and the machine
working principle is almost the same. So the two articles will be helpful to you.

If the layer is thinner, the printing temperature should be lower;
If the printing speed is faster, the printing temperature should be higher and
the layer should be thinner;
If there is stringing and overhang, the printing temperature should be lower;
