Common Mistakes

Choosing a temperature too low for proper melting.

Choosing a temperature too high causing filament burning.

The nozzle temperature is set to 200°C, which is a common setting for PLA filament.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting bed temperature too low causing poor adhesion.

Setting bed temperature too high causing warping.

Setting the bed temperature to 60°C helps the print stick better, especially for PLA.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 23 instead of 230, missing a zero.

Setting temperature too high causing nozzle damage.

The correct nozzle temperature for ABS filament is around 230°C, so 230 is the right value.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up bed and nozzle temperatures.

Using PLA temperatures for PETG printing.

PETG typically prints well with a nozzle temperature around 210°C and a bed temperature around 70°C.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting fan speed too high causing warping.

Using PLA temperatures for ABS printing.

ABS printing usually requires a nozzle temperature around 240°C, bed temperature around 90°C, and fan speed at 0% to prevent warping.
