Hi lhjordanlh,
Interesting question and interesting filament.
I've been printing with first gen Verbatim PLA said to be 3.00 mm, but really are 2.95 mm. So for the size issue, I'll see no problem here.
It will really depend of the accurity of the actual size of this brand of filament.
If the tolerance is good, there should be no problem using this type of filament.
Thanks.
Torgeir.
Thank you so much for the information Togeir, so does it mean Ultimaker 3 can in general print 3mm filament without issue even in the long run?
I am asking this because I read from other threads in the forum that people have been saying printing 3mm filament with Ultimaker will in long run stresses the feeder and damages the feeder. Moreover, apparently it squeezes the filament too much, so it affects the print quality.
I wonder what is your experience on printing 3.00mm in terms of that?
Many thanks,
Jordan YK
