Total garbage quality prints with P1S
EDIT: below problem appears to be a fan issue. reseated the fan and can audibly confirm it's now working whereas earlier today when I printed the attached vase it wasn't. Reddit to the rescue! 🤯
Hoping for some help. P1S owner here... I'm about to toss out the printer since Its unworkable. Been getting inconsistent quality prints since I got it about a month ago. I have already used up two spools testing all sorts of settings I have mostly found on reddit but nothing works consistently.
I printed basic PLA and Silk PLA, both BBL own filament.
- The printer is standing on a solid floor, on the anti vibration feet.
- I have calibrated my printer a lot of times. both flow dynamics and flow rate
- Nozzle used is the standard 0.4 version that comes with the printer
- Tried every speed thinkable (Silk PLA the slowest by far)
- Textured plate
- Nozzle temp is 220degs
- Flow ratio is 0.98
- Max Volumetric speed 21mm3/s
When I slice a vase, all looks fine but when I print it's hit or miss. I can do two print jobs in a row and one can come out fine while the other is garbage. Same settings, filament etc etc.
I'm slicing with Bambu Studio;
- Printing the outer wall at 200mm/s, inner wall 350mm/s
- Layer height 0.12mm (initial layer 0.2)
- Order of walls: changed to outer/inner (read that somewhere)
- Retraction changed from 0.8 to 0.5
Starting to get really annoyed with the thing. Anyone any clues??
