- Detailed description of the problem
My still very new A1 printer has started scraping the nozzle against the model when printing. It also leaves a lot more random “poops” when extruding making for sometimes very unclean and uneven surfaces.
- Printer model used
Bambulab A1
- Slicer settings used
Orcaslicer - Restored all to default.
- Type of filament used
Bambulab PLA Matte Black
- Photos that clearly show the problem
- .3mf file (if the file can be shared)
I just used the retraction calibration test in Orcaslicer.
- Any potentially useful information that is related to the problem
Using a smooth PEI plate, but it also happens with the included textured plate. I thought that some of the unevness while printing may have been caused by moisture buildup in the fillament, but I have now bought a PolyDrier and dried the fillament for a total of 18 hours.
I have the same issue using my 0.2mm nozzle.
Tried doing calibration on the printer several times. Also tried some of the calibration tests in Orcaslicer.
Not sure what to try now.
I can see that a lot of people have similar issues, maybe not both at the same time, but a lot of times these topics remain unresolved or people are just not good at replying with what actually worked for them.
This printer has been used for maybe 50 hours total, so I would be shocked if something has broke already.
I deleted all configuration files for Orcaslicer to try with all settings at default. Is anything stored on the printer itself that I need to reset it too?
