Extruder
Retraction yes
Retraction Distance 5 mm prefer 4 or larger if you don’t have microswiss hot end,
otherwise use 3mm. If you do a stinging test you can find
sweet spot.7 or 8 is great but you need to have a hot end that
will accept this.
Extra Restart Distance -0.1 use a small negative number if you are getting blobs on restart
after retraction
Retraction Verticle Lift 0
Retraction Speed 30 mm/s
Layer
Primary Layer Height 0.2 0.16 for fine, 0.18 for medium, 0.20 for fast, PETG likes
larger sizes (doesn’t like to be squished, best to go .2)
Top Solid Layer 5 to 6 5 to 6 if using 0.2 layer hieghts 10 to 12 if using 0.1
Bottom Solid Layers 4 4 to 5 if using 0.2 layer hieghts 8 to 10 if using 0.1
Fist Layer Speed 40.0% go slow on first layer to promote good bed adhesion
Additions
Skirt Layers 1 this helps you to fine tune levelling while printing skirt layers
Skirt Offset from Part 10 mm make as far as possible and stil on bed to find the best
levelling settings
Skirt Outlines 3
1
Infill
dense support layers 1 can do higher if it’s a tall support structure and easily removed
Temperature
Primary Extruder 245 this was for eSun PETG, may be different for your filament,
usually hotter is better for flow
Heated Bed 75 may change for your filament
Cooling
Layer 1 0
Layer 2 60.0%
Layer 3 100.0% I use dual blowers so I need to reduce fan output, if single
you may want to use 100%. For PETG to get the best
structure use no fans, to get better aesthetics use fan
