2 different filaments.

Good benchies printed in 0.5mm layer.
Bad ones are at 0.2mm.

Printed one after the other from left to right.
All same settings. What should I be fine tuning to be able to print at 0.2mm?

When printing at a finer layer height like 0.2mm, some settings that you may need to fine-tune include:

  1. Print Speed: Lowering the print speed can help with finer details and smaller layer heights.
  2. Extrusion Multiplier: Adjusting the extrusion multiplier to ensure the right amount of filament is being extruded for the thinner layers.
  3. Temperature: Fine-tuning the print temperature can help with better adhesion between layers.
  4. Bed Leveling: Ensuring the bed is properly leveled is crucial for good adhesion and print quality, especially at thinner layer heights.
  5. Cooling: Proper cooling is essential for smaller layers to prevent overheating and improve overhangs.

Make small adjustments to these settings while doing test prints to achieve better results at 0.2mm layer height.

Is that the layer width?

#

Jk sorry new here , checking now

#

its all default at 0.65.

are these the settings that I should be adjusting?

#

these are prusa settings, but orca should be similar. try these width settings I found for an mk4 with a .6 nozzle?

#

in the extrusion width tab

ohhhh

#

yeah I found that too

#

also tried that but came to zilch results ):

#

is it possible that its solely due to the size of the benchy? current dimensions are
X - 2.36
Y - 1.22
Z - 1.889 inches

#

Currently printing at 0.1mm layer height , but since the object is pretty flat and big its doing really well

#

maybe try going up in layer height? Like try doing .25 and see if that works?

I shall try. I just did a test print for something thats 0.1mm and its looking... fine for some reason?
