    Looks pretty good ! Looks like the first layer is a bit to close but thats easily fixed.

    Its a deprime. Good for test prints. Fast and has alot more to it than a cube :D

    The deprime printed at 195°, I don't want to mess with the slicer settings and f**k things up.

    I doubt that you will. IMO you will need to change the temperature and layer heights, but the rest are pretty tuned in for general use with the MK2.

    Write down your settings, take screen shots...whatever you have to do but dont be afraid to make changes :D If you dont make changes you wont know if its better or worse.

    You think cooler than 195 degrees? and the layer height is 2 mm, even lower?

    I cant tell you what temperature to print at, only to test. raise the hotend up, heat and extrude 100 mm at 190, does it do it ok? Then you should be able to print at that temperature

    Excellent idea and it works well for normal filaments (ABS, PLA, some others -- not nylon). Quick and easy to do and gets you close to perfect. If those filaments stick to the nozzle when you do this then you are extruding too hot.

    Does the Prusa edition of slic3r repair the .stl files?

    Yea, that's what I use, but it turns it into a .3mf or something.

    I tried printing my own print I designed, I print it all the time on the R1 +, 1 and 19 mins in the Prusa got to 100% and stopped, not even close to being done. Usually take 3 hours on the R1+. Why did this happen, it was printing so good.[​IMG][​IMG]
