Printing Techniques
1. Ensure optimal nozzle height. If the nozzle height value
is too low, it will cause warping; if it is too high, it will crash
the nozzle into the platform,causing damage and clog-
ging. You can manually fine-tune the nozzle height value
in the"Calibation"panels.You can try to adjust the nozzle
height value plus or minus 0.1–0.2mm from the base on
previous saved nozzles heights.
2. Calibrate the printing platform well. An unleveled plat-
form usually causes warping.
3. Allow enough time for sufficient preheating.A well
preheated platform is essential for printing large objects
without warping.
4. The airflow on print head is adjustable, slide the air flow
adjustment knob to change the amount of cooling direct-
ed onto the printed object. Generally the more cooling
provided, the better the print quality. Cooling also help
with support and raft removal. However cooling also
encourage wrapping, especially for ABS.
To generalize, PLA can take strong cooling without prob-
lem,while ABS should avoid cooling or give little cooling.
For ABS+ medium cooling is recommended.
5. Printing with no raft. It is highly recommended to use
raft for normal printing as it improves adhesion and is
required for leveling compensation. It is turned on by
default, but you can turn it off in the "Print Preference"
panel.
6. Printing with no support. It is possible to print with out
supporting structures.You can turn off support by choos-
ing "No Support" in the "print" setting panel.
