medium📝 Application Q4 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Analyze first layer adhesion issue
Poor sticking usually happens if the bed is too cold to help filament stick.Step 2: Evaluate options
'Bed temperature is too low' fits best; nozzle too close usually squishes filament, filament diameter affects extrusion, firmware unrelated.Final Answer:
Bed temperature is too low -> Option BQuick Check:
First layer adhesion problem = Low bed temperature [OK]
Quick Trick: Low bed heat causes poor first layer sticking [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Thinking nozzle too close causes poor adhesion
- Blaming filament diameter for sticking
- Assuming firmware affects adhesion
