Hi All,

 

I have the following problem: Material is being printed during certain travel movements. First I suspected it was due to "stringing" with improper retraction settings. But after closer inspection with the layer preview within Cura, I found that "dark blue" printer head movements got printed with material whereas the "light blue" printer head movements were not. You can refer to the attached screenshot to illustrate what I mean exactly. The lines with red arrows got printed (=BAD) and lines with green arrows not (=GOOD).

Surely, this is unwanted behavior as material is printed in places I don't want it to. Or am I overlooking a setting in particular to correct for this?

 

I'm stuck here and can use some help out there. I use latest version of Cura v4.5.0 .

 

Thanks in advance,

Geert
