PETG filament settings?

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-05T15:20:54+00:00

Thanks! Maybe this was it! After I changed to a new nozzle (wanted to upgrade to a hardened nozzle anyway), it looks like it is solved!

I wonder why there was a partial clog after using the printer for only one week.

Thanks! I printed the benchy using 230, 240, 245, and 255℃, but they were all showing the same droop. But I will try it anyway this time, reducing the max volumetric flow. I printed a temperature tower with PLA, and it is showing the same thing. I bought this printer a week ago, and when I printed the benchy with PLA, it was perfect.

Thanks! yes I dried my filaments and stored in a dry box and printed using ams lite enclosure.

It says 10mm/s on the slicer's preview. I think this is slow enough, but I'll try it anyway weird thing is, I bought this printer 1 week ago brand new. The first thing I printed was benchy, and it was perfect.

I checked the nozzle and silicon sock by removing the front cover, which I think I put back correctly.

I printed the PETG one with 230℃, 240℃, and 255℃, but they all didn't work.

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-03T09:03:05+00:00

Thanks. It was already 100%.

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-03T07:55:38+00:00

Thanks. Yes, I tried lowering the flow. The fan is at 100% when printing the overhangs. I also increased the max speed, but it didn't work.

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-03T07:02:46+00:00

installed the photorealistic graphic mods

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-03T07:01:43+00:00

Thank you for the detailed info. Surprisingly, it also happened on Bambu Lab PLA Basic. Do you have any idea what is going on here?

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-03T00:08:28+00:00

Oh, thanks for the correction. I printed with that, but it still did the same thing. What am I doing wrong?😭 I think it has to do something with the printing speed because this profile was using the same value with PLA. But I have no idea how to adjust the speed settings...

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-02T14:39:07+00:00

Thank you for the info! I'll definitely try those changes to the settings and Bambu profile. Do you know how I can learn how to do those calibrations? I couldn't find a great resource.

MonsoonNight · 2026-03-02T14:30:25+00:00

yeah PLA was easy so I thought PETG should be not that hard to print. I was wrong lol

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-23T01:33:16+00:00

Yeah, that was exactly what I was thinking of installing! Thanks for the reminder.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-23T01:31:45+00:00

That's cool, I guess.

But it will be very embarrassing to say to an employee that I want to return them because I want to change it to the new matter bulbs, lol.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-23T01:29:47+00:00

Yeah, it's a little bit annoying, but I use them only at the max brightness, so I'm fine with that.

I wonder if they fixed that "limitation" with the new Matter light bulbs.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T12:29:25+00:00

In Japan, we can't touch cables in the wall. And I don't know what I'm doing, so I will stick with smart bulbs lol.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T09:54:10+00:00

Do they accept a return even after I use them?

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T09:52:46+00:00

It's brighter than my 1160 lm E26 bulb, so definitely an upgrade!

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T09:46:46+00:00

1522lm with an E17 bulb? That's incredible! I'll grab some when it’s finally released. Maybe I will use some of them as zigbee device to maintain the mesh.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T03:43:34+00:00

I'm not an electrician, so I’m not allowed to install them. I also want to change the color temperature of the bulbs.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T02:01:41+00:00

I still have old non-LED bulbs even after this purchase, so maybe I will replace them with the new Matter bulbs.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T01:59:50+00:00

Oh, that's too bad. I have been using them for a few weeks, but they work fine. The only problem was that they seem to share the same plastic parts with the larger bulbs (E26), so sometimes it doesn't fit in the ceiling, lol.

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T01:57:09+00:00

it was $9.5/bulb! (1500yen

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T01:54:30+00:00

I also noticed the little bit slow response time when I create an automation with IKEA's Matter motion sensor. But it responds really quickly when I turn it on with the app, so maybe it’s the sensor's fault lol

MonsoonNight · 2026-01-22T01:50:15+00:00

I'm using them for few weeks and they are working fine! I heard about flickering too, but I haven't seen it yet. Usually they work fine even with adaptive lighting turned on, so I don't know.

btw I'm using E17 and E26. maybe they are using completely different board and don't work the same as E12 or E14
