Hello all! This is my first post! I’m not brand new to printing, but still fairly new to the P1S. I recently swaped out to a 0.2mm nozzle for some smaller prints and I am encountering a problem I can’t solve. I’m printing a small (1.5 cm) emblem, but the top layers are grey instead of the cream white they should be. I would also love to make the top layer image crisper.
Things I’ve tried:
drying the black filament in a heated drying box
confirming flush into infill is turned off
increased flush volume from automatic settings
Both filaments are Bambu matte PLA. Photos attached, cm ruler for scale. Any other suggestions for how I might fix this?
your white filament at least is under extruding, so increase flow rate/calibrate, and it will put more white stuff down to help
check your slicer preview. Is it automatically painting black filament underneath your white areas, or is it pretty clear vertical boundaries on the slicer and just muddy IRL when printed?
It also is interesting in that the internal solid infill looks concentric (or like 100 walls) and the top is monotonic. I wonder aloud if rectilinear internal solid infill might look better here. Concentric sometimes has a stacking effect that presents itself when you try to stuff it into small shapes. I don’t think its the root cause (flow imo) but maybe a step to explore
