Quality
Initial layer thickness: Layer thickness of the bottom layer. A thicker bottom layer makes sticking to the bed
easier. Set 100 means setting the bottom thickness the same as other layers.
Initial layer flow: The extrusion capacity when printing the bottom layer.
Cut off object bottom: Sinks the object into platform, this can be used for objects that do not have a flat
bottom or cutting off the already finished model height in order to stick or montage with other parts easily.
Continue print from cut off: Continue print from cut off. The print will first raise the nozzle to the height, then
continue print the object left last time.
Note: when select this function, should disable brim, raft and skirt features at the same time.
Speed and Temperature
Travel Speed: Moving speed without printing.
Usually setting at 80 is the best choice, also can reach speeds of 150mm/s at most. But it may cause the
motor stop missing problem.
Bottom layer speed: The bottom print speed. Recommended 20, set as 0 means the same as other layer.
Reducing the bottom layer speed can help model stick more closely to platform.
Outer shell speed: Speed at which outer shell is printed. If set to 0 then the print speed is used. Printing the
outer shell at a lower speed improves the final skin quality. However, having a large difference between the
inner shell speed and the outer shell speed will affect quality in a negative way.
Inner shell speed: Speed at which inner shells are printed. If set to 0 then the print speed is used. Printing the
inner shell faster than the outer shell will reduce printing time. It is good to set this somewhere in between
the outer shell speed and the infill printing speed.
Infill speed: Speed at which infill parts are printed. If set to 0 then the print speed is used for the infill.
Printing the infill faster can greatly reduce printing time, but this can negatively affect printing.
