Running into a lot of first layer issues
I'm printing a 230 × 230mm flat panel (3mm-thick) with a lot of holes in it, and I've noticed some first layer issues on my Kobra X. I'm printing with two filaments of Bambu Matte PLA (black and white).
I've noticed three issues:
(1) There should be a distinct horizontal white line (circled in red), just like the vertical white line. However, the black filament is basically covering all of it. When I was watching the first layer print, the white horizontal line printed cleanly (when viewed from above). But I think it was printed largely on top of the black filament which had crept into the empty space (meant for the white line). These white lines are created using a separate object in the 3mf file, which is 0.4mm high and 0.8mm wide.
(2) There appears to be some stringing (or stray filament) crossing many of the holes (see the close-up in the second image).
(3) And finally, some wall lines appear to have exceeded the boundary of the print (see last image).
These issues may or may not be related, but I would appreciate any help dialing in the settings to correct them. Thank you so much for the help!
P.S: The settings that I modified for this print are the following
- Filament print temperature, other layers: 210 °C (instead of 220 °C)
- Enable prime tower
- 3 wall loops (instead of 2)
- 5 bottom shell layers (instead of 3)
