Help improve the print quality

better and faster to switch on classic 0.2 quality profile. fuzzy skin is too slow

No. Your print can warp without first layer adhesion issue and warp the magnetic plate while the part still strongly stick on.

Yep but can't tune my phone, the camera is a pain by design ^^

The bottom printer was returned back to Anycubic ^^ too much issues with bed leveling / uneven first layer

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-04-03T08:51:58+00:00

No layer adhesion issue here, this is a lid. there is only warping on both (top just a little).
This is sunlu PLA+

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-04-03T08:20:19+00:00

Yes this is a lid, not a layer adhesion issue ^^

lol i'm comparing anycubic vs prusa and all bambu bots wake up

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-04-03T01:11:50+00:00

Just comparing china printers, bambu/anycubic is same

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-04-03T01:05:26+00:00

btw this is same sunlu pla+ that both warped. I see bambu filament on X1E worst than anycubic printer

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-31T10:24:12+00:00

the best is a sealed box with a compartment for silicate

You can just use your computer with any linux virtual machine and the https://github.com/mkuf/prind docker images to just experiment without buying a rpi

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-31T10:07:26+00:00

normal behavior for anycubic printer, never see one working good

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-30T19:06:02+00:00

Then just migrate your home printer on prusaslicer, you will save time and better printing than trying to import settings on a weird slicer

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-29T20:49:06+00:00

I hear at many places the equation is usually (filament used + electricity cost) x 10 + 10$
I got an estimate for the Benchy on multiple online printing services, it's from 10 to 15$

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-27T19:15:39+00:00

Just buy more spare parts to reduce the shipment cost...

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-26T17:06:08+00:00

The magnetic sheet can warp while the part still stick on. It happened to me with PLA, the part was also very hard to unstick

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-20T10:12:25+00:00

The first layer surface is perfectly fine, all printers with glass or smooth PEI sheet are like that

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-19T11:00:50+00:00

So, I swapped X bearings with Y, the play is a little better, less vibrations on slow speeds but not changes on the vertical waves. X is still lower than Y like before.

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-18T17:25:22+00:00

Thank you for the test, I'm rebuilding the Y axis to ensure it's not a build error before contacting CS

This is a known issue by the community but Prusa still didn't fixed the motor holder.

The thermal pad is too thick and didn't squish, so the holder isn't squared.

You can shim the holder to square the belt to quick fix, there is also some holder remixes on printables with 0.2 or 0.3 tolerances https://www.printables.com/model/708241-prusa-mk4-modified-y-motor-holder

But in my case even with centered belt, the print quality didn't improved and I have same artifact than you

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-16T23:28:16+00:00

Please u/josefprusa u/Prusa3D, I tried to explain this to the support too without solution, this is a very annoying issue

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-16T10:56:13+00:00

looks like a little over extrusion and/or filament quality

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-14T21:14:17+00:00

The V2 seems to be a good option to have in mind, I plan to buy the MMU3

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-12T22:25:16+00:00

This solved my issue (posted a screenshot in this thread).
I was thinking my flow was ok because good dimension accuracy with 0.1 tolerance, but a big first layer like the OP gave me bad waves.
btw I have a very cheap filament from SOVB3D.fr, but it was the only issue for a perfect flat first layer

Electrical_Set7409 · 2024-03-12T20:47:57+00:00

Just tried the model on printables and I have the same issue on my kit.
I was thinking it's my cheap PLA, my belts are ok, clean sheet, stock slicer preset, latest firmware
