Even if it’s the same brand, some brands have poor QC. Often even the same color filament will be a slightly different shade than the previous. But if you got a different color, the pigments can make a significant difference in print settings color-to-color

#

Just dial it in for this one. Slow down your first couple layers to 25mm/s and ramp the temp (nozzle and bed) up 5C for the first layer

did you check if the bowden tube is seated correctly and the extruder motor is tensioned correctly

#

also you said you cleaned the hotend .. did you hottighen it=

sudden wharf
#

I did a thorough hot end cleaning. Removed everything and cleaned everything individually

#

assembling the hotend at like 200c losening it a little a heating up to max temp and then tighen it down

sudden wharf
#

Yes, that's what I did

vague obsidian
#

I'm currently attempting the same part with the old filament and it's adhering much better. It still had some issues, but only 2% didn't adhere.

I suspect it must just be that roll is wetter than expected?

#

are you sure its the same material? just double check .. it happens to me sometimes too

#

He did say same model #. I’d just chalk it up to bad filament QC since only a few filament companies actually have good qc

#

You get what you pay for

#

i mean have you checked the diameter?

#

sofar i only had issues with kaisertech and esun but these are like 5 years ago

whole radish
#

That’s still a QC problem

vague obsidian
#

no i could not tell you for my life what kaisertech send me

#

it smelled after corn while burning but did also disolve in acetone but needed 290c to print at 20mm/s and didnt warp on an open frame printer

#

I’ve had issues with matterhackers, esun, a few
