Hello! Stringing is a common issue in 3D printing, but it can be resolved with a few adjustments. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

  1. Retraction settings: Increase the retraction distance and speed. Testing values between 4-7mm for distance and 40-60mm/s for speed is a good starting point.

  2. Temperature: Lowering the printing temperature can reduce stringing. Experiment with reducing it in small increments, such as 5-degree intervals.

  3. Travel speed: Increase the travel speed between print areas to prevent filament from oozing. A faster travel speed helps break up any strings being formed.

  4. Z-hop: Enable Z-hop or Z-lift in your slicer software. This feature lifts the nozzle slightly during travel moves, reducing the chance of dragging and stringing.

  5. Filament quality: Poor-quality or moisture-absorbed filament can contribute to stringing. Ensure that your filament is stored properly in a dry environment.

Remember to adjust one parameter at a time and perf...
