Problem with using .8 nozzle and Wall Line Count of 2

Posted · Problem with using .8 nozzle and Wall Line Count of 2

I'm using Cura 4.71 on Windows, and using an Anycubic Kossel Linear Plus with its latest firmware.  I'm trying to print an object using a .8 nozzle, because with a .4 nozzle it would take over 24 hours to print, and there isn't much detail in the object.  I normally print with a .4 nozzle and a wall count of 2.  But i unintentionally reset the wall line count to 1, saved the resulting job and printed this object.  When looking at the object afterwards, I noticed that the infill pattern was very visible, and after checking the Cura settings, I realized that I'd set the wall line count to 1.  Otherwise the object printed fine from what I could see.  After setting the wall line count to 2, saving the job and printing it, the first few layers were fine, but after that I got a lot of spaghetti.  I had a layer height of .4mm.  I'm using PLA, with a printing temperature of 210 to allow for more filament to be melted due to the larger nozzle size.  I'm writing this from work, so I don't have any of the other Cura settings to provide.  I've done some Google searches, but other than making the layer height no more than 80% of the nozzle diameter, I can't find any other information specific to additional settings when using larger nozzle sizes.  Any ideas/recommendations?

 

Thanks

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
