I just stopped a failing print and noticed some weird extrusions happening (not english native speaker, also I’m a 3d printing noob, don’t know whether that’s the right word). You can see it in the image. Any tips to improve printing quality?
I’m printing on an Ender 3 V3 SE. This print was with standard settings.
EDIT: as a clarification, this isn’t why I stopped the print. It failed to adhere to the print plate at some spots. Redid my z offset and hopefully that solved it.
I was gonna say the z offset is too low, so the filament is getting squeezed around the nozzle and bunching up in those gobs. Did your adjustment work?
Nope, this time nothing sticked at all. Washing with soap as a next step, as that helped last time I had sticking issues. Will try again tomorrow as it’s getting late here.
Also, how much are you adjusting, in terms of steps?
I don’t know what you mean by that :( what steps are you referring to?
Yeah, a warm soapy wash is definitely a good step to include here. Let us know how it comes out
Yep, together with removing some junk from beneath the print bed and recalibrating that solved the adhesion problem.
