When printing the colors become opaque

When I print normal colors these colors all look as if they were matte.
but when printing the temperature tower shows me that I should print at 220º. I made a lamp priced at 220º and a feed rate of 80mm/s but it doesn’t take away the brightness of all the colors.
At what temperatures do you print and speeds to have the correct color brightness?

Are you saying part of the lamp looks okay?

If so, you’re likely not printing the entire model at the same speed. You can verify by looking in the “Preview” section of Bambu Studio / Orca Slicer. Make sure you have “Speed” selected in the Color Scheme dropdown.

it doesn’t come out well. They are always matte colors with no shine. but in terms of finish it’s good, I just wanted to have a little more shine even in the silk filaments

To get the colors brighter, does the temperature have to be higher or lower??

You have to decrease speed on the outside layer to 40mm or less.

but keep the temperature at 220º?

Higher temperatures usually result in glossier finishes. How high and/or how glossy is possible likely depends on the specific filament and color of that filament. You’ll probably need to do some experimenting to find the finish that looks good to your eye.

I have already made prints with this filament on other printers, in this case on an x2 and it gave a shiny finish. and printed at 200 and 35mms. but here at 80mms and 220º it looks a little dull

Yes, keep the temperature standard but slow down the outside layers until you get the shine you like. Also decrease toplayer speed if your print has big top surfaces.

Thank you, I’m going to try the red color now with 220º and a 40mm advance to see if it gets brighter.
