Travel Speed
This setting will determine how fast your print head moves while not ex-
truding filament. A normal travel speed of 125 - 150mm/s is recommended.
Bottom Layer Speed
This will control your initial layer speed. In general, a slower initial layer
speed will help with first layer adhesion.
Infill Speed
This is how fast your print head speed will be while laying down the interior
portion of your model. Faster speeds are usually tolerable here, as none of
the infill will be visible from the outside of your object. If you go too fast
compared to your inner and outer shells, you can have adhesion issues or
globs of filament left behind from the printhead.
Outer Shell Speed
This will be the outermost surface of the model. This is the most important
setting, as it controls the speed of your print head on the visible layers. As
a general rule of thumb, the slower you go the better looking print you will
get.
Inner Shell Speed
This affects vertical walls that are in between the outer shell and infill. This
will not be visible but will help support the outer shell and the infill. We
recommend keeping this speed setting between your infill and your outer
shell speed.
Minimal Layer Time
This will determine a minimum amount of time your printer will spend
laying down each layer. If your layer print time falls below this your printer
will automatically slow down to reach this time before moving onto the next
layer. Tweaking this can help get cleaner, crisper prints.
