Printing in Blobs


Recommended Posts

Posted · Printing in Blobs

I just changed the nozzle (0.4 mm) on my UM2 extended. It tries to print the object but it puts out blobs of material. I am using PLA material and the machine is only one month old. Please give suggestions I can try.

    Most likely you are levelled a bit too high off the glass. Try turning the 3 leveling knobs a full turn counter clockwise while printing your next part to see if that helps.
