A-20 prints using Cura - printing like swiss cheese
Posted: Fri Feb 01, 2019 5:39 pm
Greetings to all. Been using an Ender3 Pro for the last few months and just got the A-20 up and running and attempting first print.
I tried the easyprint software for windows with the A20 and got a rough mottled finish on the part. I am more familiar with Cura so I tried the cura instructions here http://www.geeetech.com/forum/viewtopic ... ura#p90212 and loaded up my part and used the same file I printed using the Ender to compare the prints but got the same rough flimsy print results. I printed at 100 % infill but the part is soft and rubbery. It should be laying down nice flat lines. I spent the day and used every trick I know from using the Ender everyday for the last few months. I tried different heat settings from 200 to 205, tried different filaments, changed out the nozzle just in case. As I am new to A20 I dont know if it is the print head, the firmware or the software settings.
Below is a comparison of the Ender print on the left and the A20 on the right. I have seen lots of great prints on the net and in the forum here so wondering if someone can help. TIA
