Recently, while looking at the hotend, I noticed that the hotend was bent and installed the spare hotend that came with the machine. Its color was like silver, I guess it was a stainless steel hotend. Then I started printing in PETG. I hadn’t tried PLA. Today, I made a print because you need PLA printing. However, I am experiencing excessive stringing in the text areas. I use Esun PLA+ filament. It has been 20 days at most. It has been out in the open since then. I don’t think there is a possibility of moisture. I tried increasing the retraction settings, I tried changing the distance to 1mm and the speed to 35mm, but it didn’t work. What should I do?
My settings are the Esun settings that come with the standard program. There is no additional change. I did things like resetting the printer and redoing all the calibrations, but it didn’t work.
The filament color I am having trouble with is cold white. The interesting thing is that this happens with a few different filaments. I also used it with a 0.2mm hotend and there was no problem.
I sorta had the same issue. I found out my issue was the temp was to high, and a calibration issue with Esun filament
What calibrations did you do? I want to try it too. And what is the temperature value?
If you use Orca Slicer there is a callibration assistant that helps solving this issues. Take a look, it’s helpful.
