Advanced Usage
5.1 Intro
After you become familiar with printing using the default settings, a few
advanced techniques may help in getting better and more consistent prints
from the LulzBot
®
TAZ 3D printer. Some of these instructions are items
and materials not included with the TAZ. With any of these additional
items or materials, follow safety and usage guidelines as instructed by the
manufacturer.
5.2 Changing nozzles
Nozzle related issues will not be covered under warranty after nozzle
changes.
Your hot end is equipped with a 0.50mm nozzle. This nozzle diameter
will print faster than a 0.35mm nozzle. Purchase a tool head from
LulzBot.com with an alternate nozzle diameter for quick, easy, and simple
changes.
Due to the specic torque of 30 inch pounds required to tighten the
nozzle when removed, removing the nozzle is not recommended. Failure to
properly tighten the nozzle to the specic recommended torque may lead
to leaks or damage if over-tightened.
5.3 Bed Adhesion
You may nd that during printing, printed parts lift o the print surface on
the corners. If you are seeing this turning on Brim in Cura will help increase
the surface area of the print, improving part adhesion. If the corners of the
part still lift, clean the PEI surface with IPA/ Isopropyl Alcohol and sand
the surface with ne grit (2000-3000) sandpaper.
ABS/Acetone Glue
Acetone is not included or required with the LulzBot TAZ 3D printer.
Acetone and ABS solution is NOT recommended anymore, as the PEI
print surface works well without it.
