First off, I am new to 3d printing. My first printer is the P2S + AMS 2 Pro combo that I got on January 20th. I’ve been keeping it busy and slowly building up my familiarity with the device and what to look out for when downloading/printing profiles from MakerWorld.
I’ve been really successful on single color prints or multi-color prints where colors are separated by objects/build plates.
I have recently started trying to get into true multi-color printing and have been running into some issues.
The main issue is the Prime Tower. I’ve tried different models from MakerWorld, each one varying in height, from short 5-10cm to large 15cm+ and the issue is the same on all of them.
After ~200 layers, there seems to be some bulging out the side of the Prime Tower. Reading the documentation in the wiki for Prime Towers, a similar visual appears under the Deepened Start Point Gap for Interface Layer: heading. So is this an issue of Purge Blobs? Do I need to increase the
After the bulging starts, maybe 10-20 layers later, the Prime Tower gets knocked around and then major spaghetti happens and then filament ends are all over the place (think i used that terminology correctly).
This then lead me to testing some suggestions I found under the P2S and H2-series printer topics, recommending that my Flow Rate and Flow Dynamics needed to be calibrated. So, I did both. Flow Dynamics was kind of tricky for me to discern between the absolute best one, but it was between .2 and .3. Flow Rate, my BL PLA Matte was spot on to the defaults and BL PLA Basic was adjusted from .98 to .9981. Filaments were dried before hand, AMS is showing 16% humidity.
I also played around with changing the Z hop mode to Normal incase it was the print head colliding with the tower itself.
I played around with Brim width as well for the tower without success as well.
The secondary issue is that, well i cant quite explain why it is happening though in the example picture, the green that is on the same layer as the black eyes is darker.
