Filament
Diameter (mm): This describes the diameter of the filament being used. This value should be adjusted to the standard
Folger Tech filament of 1.75 mm.
Flow (%): This describes the amount of filament being pushed through the nozzle. This value can be adjusted to optimize
the quality of the print. A typical value is between 90-100 % for your FT-5 printer. If excessive plastic is being extruded,
reduce this value by 5%.
Advanced Settings Defined
The Advanced tab parameters are printer specific and most will only need to be adjusted once. The figure below shows the
