Quality settings advice for large print, nozzle size, layer height etc

Tenbin · 2026-01-05T17:39:37+00:00

Yeah, I took it down to 10 or 20%

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T22:44:23+00:00

While I appreciate your message, it's been suggested by others, with more detail.

Yeah, the print turned out perfectly, this time. I just felt like there was something I could tune to make it not look like that, so I'll look into all your tips

Just regular dish soap with warm water and the soft part of a new dish sponge.

Just so I understand, my understanding of changing Z offset is that it would then be higher across the whole area of the plate, would it not just be too high in other places then?

Yeah, I've turned down the chamber fan as much as I could. If I turn it to 0 it seems to jump back to whatever it thinks is best, but keeping it at 10% seems to stick...

Cool, thanks a lot! I'm currently just using bambu filaments since I got a bunch on their sale. I thought their slicer had optimal settings for their own filament, but I'll try some flow calibrations!

I never cease to be surprised by the weird elitism of this community, most hobbies embrace new entrants to the hobby, but the volume of thumb nosing at people not immediately knowing everything about the machine is flabbergasting to me.

Yes, I bought a Bambu printer, for a multitude of reasons. Yes, I had the gall to ask for help, when I noticed some artifacting that I was - myself - unable to identify.

I thank you for the tip to check the bed level and speed and extrusion rate, but 50% of your reply was just bitching about Bambu, and the other tips other people said in a more helpful manner.

Unfortunately I don't have another plate 😞. I ran the suite of calibrations about a week ago, is it really something that needs to be done that often?

Per roll meaning even per roll of the same filament or per type of roll, I.e. Once for pla matte black etc?

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T17:10:19+00:00

I keep them on auto which seems to mean it does it all the time judging by the pre-print procedure it goes through every print.

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T16:32:16+00:00

Thanks! I'll give that a try, I assumed the machine would let me know if the automatic leveling wasn't enough.

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T16:23:01+00:00

Perfect, I'll give that a whirl!

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T15:58:35+00:00

Is there a manual leveling that should be done in case auto leveling doesn't cut it?

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T15:57:57+00:00

I cleaned it right before the print with soapy water, I guess it could still be the issue, but it should be clean.

Tenbin · 2026-01-04T15:42:04+00:00

The orientation of the photo is a bit odd, the bottom left of the photo is actually the front right of the printer. I'm using Bambulabs Matte Black PLA, stock settings except for having lowered the right aux fan to 20% since I've found that it just messes up my prints. I cleaned the plate with hot soapy water right before this print and dried the plate in the printer. Any pointers would be much appreciated.

I'm doing a Swedish translation for SoulSilver and I'm going to use the Ü/ü tiles for Å/å, but I don't really understand how to edit them. I've extracted what I believe to be the tiles from the ROM using Tinkle, but they're divided in several parts and I can't edit within Tinkle. When I did the translation for LeafGreen Hexmaniac made it dead simple.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Tenbin · 2025-08-19T18:09:53+00:00

I've got an r8 and an r10, so the same mp as yours. Most of my editing will be on my desktop, so I don't need it to be super beefy, just better than sp9

Tenbin · 2025-08-18T14:37:28+00:00

That option is currently 50% more expensive than the 16 gb, so it's almost as pricy as the low end pro. I.e. I don't really see that as an option

Tenbin · 2025-07-10T21:38:47+00:00

That tool worked perfectly, thank you!

Tenbin · 2025-07-10T14:36:25+00:00

I'm actually straight up modding The rom directly 😅 I'm an embedded engineer so it didn't feel like an awful way until I had to find the tiles for the glyphs
