Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand slicing setup for dual extrusion
Each filament requires correct temperature and model parts must be assigned to the right extruder in the slicer.Step 2: Evaluate other options
Ignoring the second extruder, using same temperature for different filaments, or disabling supports can cause print failure.Final Answer:
Assign each part of the model to the correct extruder and set proper temperature for each filament -> Option BQuick Check:
Slicer setup = assign parts + correct temps [OK]
Quick Trick: Assign parts and set temps correctly in slicer [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Ignoring second extruder setup
- Using one temperature for all filaments
- Disabling supports unnecessarily
