I see a lot of people claim they tune/calibrate their printer any time they use a new spool of filament. But does anyone actually do this? It feels like a waste of time when filament is so consistent, even between brands. I can understand doing it for specialty rolls, but for basic pla? Seems unnecessary
Not for each new roll of filament, but I am relatively new (less than 1 month) and with the same roll I have some prints failing. Mostly because they detatch from the bed (Material is PETG, on an Ender 3 Max Neo). I’ve tried a lot of things already:
Different nozzle temps
Z axis offset calibration
Cleaning the print-bed
Leveling the print-bed (including the screws and the A4 paper trick)
Heated bed vs. non-heated
Printer placed in an enclosure to prevent drafts
So far it seems to go alright, but I still get detatching prints occasionally, or deforming mid-print. It’s kind of frustrating :(
As badly described as possible, what is your favorite video game?
Do people actually tune their printer for each new roll of filament?
