Hi,

2 questions in 1 post

Here is a set of pictures of my latest print. There is a lot of stringing going on that I strongly believe is related to retraction:

Q1: How do I configure retraction

Q2: In image IMG_20161031_064847.jpg and IMG_20161031_064910.jpg areas marked in red - there is some excess extrusion that I don't believe required support since it was not over hanged. Does anyone knows what is it related to or how to troubleshoot that?

Thanks in advanced

Hi,
1.Here is the retraction setting in slicer settings: 2.And for excess filament extrusion,the following article may help you:

Thanks!

Ok. I dropped the temperature by 30 deg. and the excess extrusion completely stopped.

Regarding the retraction - doesn't look better at all:

I set:

Length = 4
Minimum travel after retraction = 4
Retract on layer change = v
Wipe while retracting = v

Those the setting I've made.

Any other ideas?

What travel speed are you using?

You'd better increase the travel speed as long as the motor doesn't lose steps:

Thanks, problem completely solved by dropping temperature to 180.
