Hi
:mrgreen:


I suggest you read this first:

https://www.geeetech.com/forum/viewtopi ... 275#p85275

Applies to a different printer model but the problem is similar.
If in doubt, ask further.

How much did you set the nozzle diameter and layer height?
Did you calibrate the E step?

You can try layer height with 0.15-0.2mm for other layers, 0.2-0.3mm for the first layer.

How to calibrate the Estep?

How to change the Estep value?
Use Gcode M92, try to search more information about step/mm change in the forum or Google. :)
