#What would cause layer lines like this?
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
If your 3D printer is missing a complete layer, it could be due to a few reasons. One possibility is that the printing speed is too high, causing the printer to skip layers or not deposit enough material. Lowering the printing speed might help address this issue.
Additionally, check if the printer's nozzle is clean and free from any obstructions. Sometimes, clogs or partial blockages can impede the proper flow of filament, resulting in missing layers. Clearing the nozzle or replacing it, if necessary, can resolve this problem.
Lastly, ensure that the build surface is level and properly calibrated. If the first layer is not properly adhering to the build plate, subsequent layers may not print correctly. Calibrating the build plate according to your printer's guidelines can help improve layer adhesion and overall print quality.
Remember to consult your printer's user manual or manufacturer's documentation for specific troubleshooting steps tailored to your 3D printer model.
I'm unsure tho because it doesn't translate on to the print. Printing on Qidi X-Plus 3. Sorry discord wouldn't allow me to edit my original message.
