  1. jenny8008, Your settings worked perfectly. I am now able to use Cura on my Alta. Thank you SO much; this will give me so much more control over my prints. Silhouette 3D is just *so* bad at generating supports. I really, really appreciate your help!
  2. jenny8008, Thank you so much for this info! I will try these exact settings this weekend, and see how it goes! Thank you again!!
  3. Is there any other information I could provide that might help in troubleshooting this program? I'd love to use Cura with my Alta. Thanks again!

I have attached photos of the nozzle (after printing) and the bed, for what it's worth. The weird part is, that little "test line" it makes (right after it extrudes but before it starts printing) turns out fine. You can see it in the photo.
  5. I got my Alta printing from Cura, but it seems to think the bed is a bit lower than it actually is? I thought it was adhesion issues at first, but the same object will print okay if I use the Silhouette 3D software, so I think it has something to do with the bed height. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks for all the great information in this thread; without it, I never would have even known where to begin!
