  1. - Brand/Type printer?

    - Brand/Type material?

    - Printing temperature? What does the manufacturer advice? (info on the role of material)

    - Printing Speed? 

     

    Give as much information as possible...

     

    For flexible materials you print at slow speed, minimal retraction...

  2. The Creality CR-10S Pro has a heated bed, so that should be no problem... PETG & Glass Bed are not the best combination because PETG can stick so good to the bed that it will damage it! Friend of my experienced that with his Ender 3 Pro (changed from flex mat to glass bed, I warned him to be cautious)...

     

    I recently ordered a roll of PETG, my first print with it was a CHEP Calibration Cube... Print temperature 235 degrees, bed temperature 50 degrees, print speed aprox. 50mm/s, still trying out the best fan-speed... (used 100%, but my friend told me 60% is better). Must say I use lockbuild on a flex steel plate on my Ender 3 Pro, and everything sticks-like-hell to it!

     

    If I'm afraid of object warping I use a brim to get better adhesion to the printbed....

     

     

  3. Cheetah is less flexible than Ninjaflex, but therefore easier to print with a bowden-tube style printer!

     

    Ninjaflex: Shore Hardness = 85A

    Cheetah:  Shore Hardness = 95A

    Armadillo: Shore Hardness = 75D

     

    Regular PLA: Shore Hardness = 83D

    How flexible the part you print will be depends on wall thickness, wall layers and of-course infill percentage...

  4. Not all of us are familiar with the Creality CP-01 printer, so first check if you have assembled the printer the right way! If all is done correct, you start with setting up Cura for your printer...

     

    For asfar as I know the CP-01 is not in the list of printers that can be added to Cura, so you probably choose one of the other Creality printers to start with? Did you check the settings of this printer? Are they correct for the CP-01?

     

    Make photograph of you buildplate after printing and share that with us, so we can see what you problem is. A good help is to load the to print object and choose for "Save Project" and share that 3MF-file with us... we can load that in Cura and see what your settings are!

  5. Like gr5 said, it's probably that you have thicked "origin at center" by accident! Unthick that option in your printer settings and you are ready to go...

     

    If this doesn't solve the problem, maybe you can share the project-file with us. Load the object in Cura, choose for SAVE PROJECT and share that 3MF-file with us. Then we have your settings and it is easier to see what may be the problem!

  6. Screenshots don't tell the whole story... please attach the STL-file and 3MD-project file... Create the 3MF-project file by choosing for SAVE PROJECT in Cura... Then we can check what happens when we are trying to print the STL with our own settings and how it looks when using your settings...

     

  7. It should be possible to print something that is 205mm in the 220x220 buildplate-setting of the Ender 3 (Pro).

     

    Sometimes options in Cura are of influence of what can be printed and what can not be printed, one of these options is "Build Plate Adhesion - SKIRT".

     

    I have set my printer to 220x220, imported an object and scaled it so it it 205mm wide...

     

    Skirt active, not able to slice:

    Skirt NOT active, able to slice:

    BBV220x220_OBJ205mm_SKIRT_NOTActive.thumb.png.6e2983977b5d6e6d11cb4630aff08243.png

     

    I checked my previous printer settings, that was 235x235 for my Ender 3 Pro...

  8. Did you select the Ender 3 Pro or the Ender 3 as printer when installing Cura? The restricted areas on the Ender 3 profile are a little bigger as on an Ender 3 Pro!

     

    There are more topics about this "problem". Try the search-option to find them!
