Prismo

I also found a huge difference between filaments. Creality was terrible for me, Reflow is great

This really summarises the passive aggressive level you get to with a 3D printer: “Lift off the bed now you little fucker!”

So a combination of three changes finally got me back the correct result.

1. Changed the nozzle for a brand new one, that helped a lot but still had a fee issues.
2. Remeasured my extrusion amount and recalibrated the e-steps, they had gone quite a way out.
3. Reduced the temp by 10°C apart from the first layer.

Thanks for your help!

I will check that, I hope its that as that would be an easy fix. Also I only use matte filament.

When you say pressure of the z-axis, do you know what they meant exactly? Not sure it could be temp as it’s the same, however I did change the part cooling fan in case that was faulty and the material wasn’t cooling fast enough

Thanks! I’ll update the thread when I test it so there is a log for anyone else who may experience this issue.

That’s interesting, thank you, I’ll double check that too.

Extruder gears seem free, but I did just notice that the POM wheels on the x-gantry seem to have flat spots in them. This could be the cause so I’ve bought some new ones to test the theory.

I’ve not had any first layer issues, all have had good extrusion and adhesion. Nothing appears to be touching.

Could be, however. I’ve had the same issues with multiple filaments that I’ve used for over a year, however this has only been happening in the last month.
