  • Page 35 Layer thickness:0.1~0.4mm available. 0.1mm high precision but long printing time, 0.4mm low precision but printing time is too short, in general select 0.2mm. Shell thickness: 0.4mm is very thin, in general select 1.2mm,that will increase printing time. Enable retraction: To prevent the wire from leaking when printing quickly, otherwise it will affect the appearance.
  • Page 36 Nozzle size: 0.4mm. Retraction Speed: The speed of retraction when printing. Retraction distance: The length of material retraction, generally select 4.5~8mm.
