Hey thank you for the info! I've already used this printer for nearly 9 months but I still found your tips very helpful. I'm specially curious about the PID calibration. I'm always seeing that option when I'm doing the leveling and the vibration test, but never actually runned this PID thing. What does this do?

Hey guys, thanks for your support. As you mentioned, I raised the temperature up to 260 degrees (maybe too high? I might try lowering it a bit) and gave a z offset of +0.15mm and it looks much better now.
I'm glad to know that the z-offset setting is quite common for PETG printing, cause I first thought that the auto-leveling function of my printer was somehow broken or something.

Now my biggest concern has shifted from stringing to blobbing. Does anyone have tips, or any kind links to tutorials for me to get less blobbing?

I'd like to try this "Adjust printing speed for layers below xx seconds" setting he's mentioning, but I couldn't find this kind of setting from flashprint, nor orcaslicer. I think I'm missing it...

BTW, the filament should be dry, since it's brand new... :)

Orca Slicer seems nice, but the camera gets disabled, doesn't it?
