#What cura settings should I change after putting a spider v3 hotend on my stock Ender 3?

Any 3d Printer/maker worth their own salt should understand whenever you change anything on your machine you should go through basic calibration test to make sure the machine is running as it should. There is a plethora of content out there with basic calibration information. If you are going to pursue this hobby it be best to familiarize yourself with basic knowledge for your machine.

@patent fox Thank you for the very passive aggressive response, I obviously know I will have to manually re-level my printer myself and get it printing. I could probably get it printing right now. I just want to know if anyone who has put the same part on has noticed anything significant that I could know before even turning the printer on after the switch. While I am only a year into the hobby this month, the ender 3 is my second printer, and your response tells me to do nothing besides, "Learn more about printers."

If you believe "bed level" is all that is required for calibrating a machine you just proved my point thus making my comment all the more impacting. If you want to take my words as passive aggressive that is your interpretation. My intent is to help understand you may need to do your own research. Not to mention basic calibration. For example, you would have discovered your answer for what retraction is required for the new hardware had you done a retraction test. The point is. There are tools and resources out there. Use them. Learn your machine. And you will be set.

Why even be lurking in the help forum if your answer is going to be “learn it yourself” 🤡

Because it's not hard. So why sit around expecting simple answers handed to you when doing basic due diligence would give you the information you seek. Even if someone gives you a ball park number you still NEED to calibrate your own printer as not everyone has the same printer/ same material or lives in the same environment as you.

Not chiming in to be friends with you. I'm offering to help you learn to teach yourself instead of depending on others in this hobby.

What kind of help is “learn your machine”
Your parents did not raise your properly
You could have pointed me in a direction, but no, “familiarize yourself with basic knowledge of your machine” is the best advice you can come up with
I believe it’s because you don’t actually have the knowledge you think you have on printers

be nice
@uneven needle after you made changes to your machine, its good to do calibration from the start
heres a list of what i think you should do:
Hot end PID tune
E-step calibration
flow % calibration
retraction tower
temp tower
print speed, acceleration & jerk
after you complete those, print a benchy and see if you are happy with the quality
