Slic3r also has retraction settings that can be adjusted for eliminating ooze. In this recipe, we're going to make adjustments with retraction speeds and distances to better refine our printing results.
You'll need the SketchUp model and, preferably, a PLA filament for this recipe. It would also be best if you have a Bowden cable system for printing the tests.
We will proceed as follows:
Print the test model using the default settings of the PLA filament.
In Slic3r, under Printer Settings, go to Speed and change the default value from
30
to45
.Print the surface test model.
Go back and change the Speed value to
80
.Print the surface test model.
Keep the Speed value at
80
and scroll up to Length to change the default value from1
to2
.Print the surface test model.
Go back and change Length to
3.2
.Print the surface test model.
