Are you printing PETG with Bambu Studio (or Orca Slicer) and achieving great results? Please share the type of filament you’re using and screenshots of your Bambu Studio settings.

There’s a ton of threads on this forum already discussing PETG and PLA at great length with the information you’re looking for.
Thanks for your interest, but such a thread doesn’t exist (sadly). Feel free to contribute rather than steer the thread off course.
FWIW, the idea isn’t to help people troubleshoot PETG printing issues. This thread is for sharing PETG settings that are working well for you.

Hi, I’m using AzureFilm PETG and I didn’t find any problems during and after print it. For the settings, I use the default ones and work perfectly. I only change wall numbers ( = 2), Top and bottom layer numbers ( both = 3), I add also brim (5mm outer) and layer thickness ( = 0,08; 0,1; 0,2 max)
I have a Bambulab X1C and I use 0,08mm profile

Found this while looking for the same thing. The profiles are for OrcaSlicer (built off Bambu Labs BambuStudio) or BambuStudio. Worth taking a look.

I’m currently tuning eSun PETG. Not entirely happy with the surface quality yet, but this is 90% there. I started with the eSun recommended X1C settings and tuned from there.

Any update on the settings to share?
Started using these and they seem to work great for me, thanks!
Thank you so much Rom3oDelta7, I was desperate I was about to throw away the eSUN PETG silver filament, I tried all the default PETG settings on my Bambulab A1 mini but the prints literally sucked, since I don’t know about it I copied the settings from your screenshots one by one creating a new custom filament in Bambulab Studio, et voilà… printing almost perfectly, I couldn’t believe it, there would still be something to fix but I wouldn’t know where to put my hands so I’m satisfied, thank you again!!!
No matter the settings, the one thing I routinely have to do for most petg filaments is add G29.1 Z0.03 (.4 nozzle; .2 usually is a Z0.015 give or take) to the machine start code as most petg’s are sticky leading to the ‘blob of doom’ and you can’t smear it, it has to be laid/plopped down. This is especially true on longer prints.
