Posted · Printing support material inside model

Hi, 

 

S5 Pro Bundle, 

UM Tough PLA - black

UM PVA - Natural

 

When printing with support, the print head crosses the model, at times leaving strings or small blobs of material on and in the actual model. This results in some bad looking prints. 

 

I have not changed anything on the standard print settings yet, but it have been a problem on all the models there have been with support. 

 

Is there a setting that makes the support avoid moving over the model, or do I need to have a closer look at the retraction settings for the PVA?

    This is from the release notes for 5.0.0 that was released today.

    "Fixed a bug where travels would go through the model with printing PVA".

    Okay, I will have to update and try again then 🙂
