Cura LulzBot Edition
Printing Temperature Initial Layer
In order to help part adhesion, it can sometimes be helpful to print the rst
layer of your object at a higher temperature than the rest of your object.
You can specify this temperature here. A good rule of thumb will be to
keep the initial layer 5 Celsius hotter than the rest of the print.
Initial Printing Temperature
During dual extrusion, your inactive nozzle will cool down to standby
temperature. As the printer comes closer to switching nozzles, it will begin
to heat from standby temperature to initial printing temperature before
moving to printing temperature. It is recommended to keep initial printing
temperature 5 Celsius lower than printing temperature.
Final Printing Temperature
As your print progresses during dual extrusion, there will be a time when
your printer swaps to its other nozzle automatically. Before switching to
the new nozzle, your active nozzle will begin to cool to your nal printing
temperature. As with initial printing temperature, it is recommended to
keep this temperature 5 Celsius below normal printing temperature.
Extrusion Cool Down Speed Modifier
The extrusion cool down speed modier can be used to adjust heat to your
hot end when extruding large amounts of plastic. This will send more power
to the heater cartridge, prevent temperature dips and extrusion issues when
printing at high speeds and/or high layer heights.
Build Plate Temperature
The build plate temperature will be used to help keep your object adhered
to the bed during the printing process. In general, keeping this set at glass
transition temperature for your specic lament is recommended.
