Minimizing Seam on the Perimeter
Posted: Wed Jun 05, 2013 4:19 pm
I've played with a few settings to try and minimize the seam created by the printer stopping and starting each layer, but I haven't been able to get it as good as I'd hope.
I know its not going to go away completely, but my suspicion is its capable of doing better than it is.
I used the randomize starting points option, but then it just leaves little dots all over the print.
I have also played with the external perimeters first option, and turning on and off retract on layer change.
What else could I adjust to help?
Are my expectations too high? I attached a picture to show the best I've been able to do so far. You can see the seam going up her back.
Thanks!
