Geeetech A10 ignoring temperature settings
Posted: Fri Apr 29, 2022 4:07 am
Hi all
I'm new to 3D printing and I recently got a Geeetech A10. It seems to be working very well aside from one thing.
I'm getting a lot of stringing, and the print sticks to the bed a little too well (tricky to remove after printing). I tried to lower the temperature of both the hot end and the bed in Cura, but it seems the printer just ignores it and always prints at 215C on the hot end and 60C on the bed. The weird thing is that it heats to 190C first when you select "Preheat PLA". I'm using Cura if it makes a difference.
Edit: Thinking about it I think I also tried increasing the retraction speed because filament was leaking out of the nozzle while it was got and not printing, but I don't think anything actually changed.
