There you go

#

Yes that very normal

formal bronze
#

elder knot
#

I thought you meant it was fully leaking

merry portal
#

Hm

#

No

formal bronze
#

when it start extruding it will get cleaned

elder knot
#

What's your nozzle temp?

merry portal
#

But what also happens is it curls up and messes up the print

#

#

level your bed

#

i guess your bed is too down

elder knot
#

Also do you not have a purge line?

merry portal
#

This is my setting

elder knot
#

You always need a purge line

merry portal
#

What is a purge line?

#

Never heard of it

elder knot
#

Is there a line at the start of every print?

merry portal
#

Nope

elder knot
#

Ok the left of your print

merry portal
#

It just starts

elder knot
#

Get that

merry portal
#

How

elder knot
#

Purge like will fix that problem of it messing up your print

#

If you can't do that

#

Then add a skirt

#

What slicer do you use?

merry portal
#

Do I have to go into a software to get the purge line?

#

Lemme show u

elder knot
#

Cura?

merry portal
elder knot
#

Oh?

#

Nah

#

Get cura

merry portal
#

Ok

formal bronze
#

cura is goat

elder knot
#

Yeah

#

Very easy to use and learn

#

Very very simple

merry portal
#

Ok cool

#

I have to go somewhere real quick but I’ll be right back

elder knot
#

Ok

#

Btw

#

The purge line on cura is a preset setting

#

So you won't have to add it

#

But you will wanna work on your cura profiles

#

Also

#

Have you done an extrusion test?

formal bronze
#

is there a way to stop that gunk from coming out tho?

elder knot
#

I mean probs

formal bronze
#

im sorry for interupting but i have cura and the skirt on

elder knot
#

But you can just counter it

formal bronze
#

can bltouch do its thing while hot end is heating?

elder knot
#

You don't have to level it before every print

elder knot
#

You can put it into the gcode

formal bronze
#

oh crap

#

should've put that on

elder knot
#

I would recommend you ask someone more experienced or do some research

merry portal
#

Ok I’m back and I got the cura slicer

#

Do I have to do anything to get the purge line or I just press slice

merry portal
#

Nvm I got it but when it actually starts printing this happens

#

That’s what it looks like

elder knot
#

Yeah

#

That will get taken away by the purge line

merry portal
#

Most times it doesn’t so I have to force it out as it starts printing

elder knot
#

No

#

Don't do thst

#

You will create a massive blob

#

And the the nozzle could get stuck on the blob

#

Just let the printer do it's thing

merry portal
#

Ok now I can print flawlessly

# merry portal Ok now I can print flawlessly

I'm also getting pre-print seepage similar to what you show here. So that's normal? My purge line doesn't fix it. It stays on the nozzle smearing the print lines. How did you fix?

formal bronze

#

Yes, bed is leveled manual and Auto (Ender 3 S1 Pro)

#

What was the fix for your problem? Just bed leveling?
