Have you tried slowing the print down?

Have you tried the "Solid Infill Underspeed" setting? It may not help with shake when filling in walls...

I found that increasing the infill overlap helped the undersides of spheres. Default is something like 15%, try increasing to 30-35%... 40% didn't help much more for me. You may need to decrease the extrusion multiplier by 1-2% to compensate for the increase in overlap. YMMV.

Zits can also be overextrusion and printing too fast. Lower the multiplier by 2-5%. The outline underspeed percentage will depend on you machine. I find a percentage which prints the outermost outline at 20-40mm/s works will for my machine.

This would be helpful.

In the meantime, I manually place anchors on the bed where the supports can print on... It can be meticulous, but you can scale the discs or squares in the XY keeping the Z at .5mm.

Dual extrusion works well in S3D. If you have a TAZ, I'd be happy to share... But for the most part I'm using the default retraction settings, no additional scripts, opted for ooze shield versus prime pillar. Sometimes use both ooze shield and prime pillar... but found my dual extruder is fine with ...

Hmm.... try a slower baud rate? Maybe a different USB cable? The following lines are in the Cura start script, but not in the S3D: G21 ; metric values G90 ; absolute positioning M82 ; set extruder to absolute mode Everything else looks about the same... at the end S3D uses a wait for bed temp, and C...

The multiplier should actually be defined in the Material profile which contain all the extruder tab settings. But I find it convenient to use the "globalExtrusionMultiplier" also. Seems as though the profile settings are loaded when selected... so picking a new Material profile won't relo...

Are you checking to make sure the object is manifold? Install the "Solid Inspector" plugin. "Clean Up" is another helpful plugin to remove stray lines that create problems for printed objects.

I think he's saying that its not autoleveling every time he starts a print... It takes a few reboots of the workstation before S3D runs the autolevel script. Otherwise the script runs correctly. Do you have Marlin as the selected firmware in the "G-Code" tab? How about the communication sp...
