The very top layer would also have high cooling fan, no?
It could be your cooling fan is just waaaay too powerful, and causing the plastic to not flow and bond correctly to the lower (or following) layers.

I’ve been seeing your posts on Masto, but I guess I’ll reply here.
I don’t know what printer you have, and I don’t know if the feature works for all printers, but could you try and use PrusaSlicer to visualise the print where the issue presents itself. More specifically, you could get some interesting data from the “actual print speed” view. That way you can see what speed the printhead reaches.
However, based on your description:
Could you be reaching the limit of what your printhead can melt? Would it make sense to calculate the actual flow through your nozzle at those high speeds? Finally, how much part cooling do you have setup? Have you tried a skirt to keep the temps more consistent?


@geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml Can we please ban this troll/anti EU contributor already?


Not sure what you need to get approved. Buying a roll of ASA? It’s part of printer maintenance, and making it more reliable in the long run.
And if you don’t have ABS/ASA on hand… why is the printer in an enclosure?


It’s the PETG. Specifically, it is the softening on the following parts:
I would recommend the following Y-axis mod for the MK4. I am still running this even on the MK4S, even though the Y-axis was modified on the MK4S.
Edit: Print those in ASA and replace them, tighten all the belts as usual, and I think your printer will be fixed.
There’s an explicit clause that exempts politicians from the ban. They get privacy because they need it, but nobody else does.
