@nicolinux might now much more for colorfab xt20 than me but imo carbonfilled filaments basics are:
- No fans
- Retractions to the minimum or off, and if used change retract speed to 15mm/s
- No fans
- Feeder tension should need to be relaxed since the filament it's easy to break/chew by any feeder.
- No fans
255C sounds ok and it shouldn't underextrude. Did you use anyother kind of filament before this print, like nylon, abs or so? If so, atomic clean it until you get a clean pull.
There was one other "trick" for XTCF-20. Measure the diameter of your filament. I had to set mine to 2.9mm in the filament profile on the printer (Material->Settings->Customize)
The full stable release of UltiMaker Cura 5.4 is here and it makes it easier than ever to remove brims and supports from your finished prints. UltiMaker S series users can also look forward to print profiles for our newest UltiMaker PET CF composite material!
