try out the islands without optimization setting. i get better prints without optimization and it's like 1% extra time

hi, changed extra restart to -.02

hi, 0.3mm retract is my final value with the above settings. 0.4mm too much, 0.2mm too little. 0.3mm is perfect

this is the setting for the filament retract. i have the vertical lift at 0.4mm still.

you can adjust the steps in a startup script on the scripts tab. i forget the gcode but it's a one liner

try raising the extrusion multiplier if .4 height gives you problems. also play around with the extrusion WIDTH. put it at .35mm wide or .30mm wide. there are a lot of new machines that use width of (nozzle diameter - 0.1mm) with great results

thanks, that's really cool. so here's what i'm using right now .4mm nozzle .45mm width .2mm retract .4 vertical lift -.05 extra restart distance .2mm layer height 4000mm/s speed 30% outer layer reduction 35% first layer speed 94% first layer height 2000mm/s retract 2000mm/s z speed 9000mm/s rapids 3...

hi, here is a batch file. condition: batch file is located in a folder with your GCODE files. i usually have S3D export to the gcode folder. the last modified file in this folder will be edited what happens: last modified file will automatically have G0 replaced with G1 and saved @echo off for /f %%...

thanks a lot for the tip. i will try it today. i got some consistent printing but if that g0->g1 thing works, i'll spend another cartridge dialing it in even more. you are right about the stringing. do you know of the maximum rapid it will accept? i tried up to 9000 but at some point it just started...

i really wish this was open source or i could just do coding for free to add more features. it would be so easy to slow down the shell layers. they already have parameter to slow down the outside layers, just not the infill of the top layers. since there is already an option box for the number of so...
