Nozzle Too High:
Insufcient contact
area resulting in
poor adhesion and
extrusion skipping.
OK:
Filament pushed
into the build
surface slightly to
maximize surface
area contact while
still allowing good
extrusion ow.
NOZZLE TOO LOW:
Not enough
clearance for the
lament to be
extruded... this will
result in damage to
the extruder and/or
build surface.
