I just got my Ender 3 Pro a month ago as a hobby to start during quarantine. I decided to start printing face shields, but I wasn't able to get them to stick to the bed.
Now I want to use painters tape but I don't know any good settings, and I have a few questions:
1) First of all, does it have to be 3m blue tape?
2) What's a good bed temp?
3) Should I put the tape on top of the magnetic bed?
4) I read somewhere that an Ender 3 should never go above 240c nozzle temperature—is that true?
5) And kind of an unrelated question: Are PETG fumes toxic?
Some details: I'm using Inland natural PETG and I have an Ender 3 ProX
Does anyone have any good settings for Inland PETG using painters tape on the bed?
