a.
Layer Height
– Determines how thick or thin your layers are. This is a property typically
determined by the material type.
b.
Speed
– Determines how fast the extruder will move during the print. Remember to change all
the speeds in the column to the desired number
Recommendation: 2-6 mm/s is good for a small accurate design (example: lattice). 8-16 mm/s is
good for a large design (example: ear). Speed is a print parameter that is very dependent on
material and pressure.
