Underextrusion only when drawing circles?

Post by Qdeathstar »

I have been recalibration my printer after getting rid of the set screws and calibrating to print to the edge.

I'm 80 percent there... But I have a strange issue I can't imagine what it is. My circles look like the are under extruded....

I was thinking a clogged extruder, also I lowered my extrusion temp to 215 for abs, but do you think think that would cause just the circles to extrude funny?

I would say maybe under extrusion mixed with a printing speed that is too fast. Also you could increase the outline overlap a bit. But ask XENOCRATES. He knows everything!

looks like it was my extrusion temp. which is strange, I figured that would affect the entire print and I'd hear clicking from the extruder... but I brought it back to 228 and the circles are fixed. I had lowered to fix the warping issues I was having, as some suggestions said to extrude at as low of a temp as possible... but I fixed it by increasing the bed temp...
