Posted (edited) · Can't get my settings right

Hello all. I am very new to the 3D printing world, and I am having some problems with my prints. I have watched loads of videos, read some articles, and even talked to ChatGPT which has given me a good base knowledge of what some of the settings do and which one to change but I have got to the point where I no longer know what to change go get a cleaner print. I have got my prints to print okayish but they are not at a quality that I am happy with.

 

I do understand that it changes depending on what you are using and what you are printing so there is not one setting that fits all but I am hoping if I give my settings and show images then someone can give me some advice or just tell me what I have done wrong.

 

I am using a ANYCUBIC KOBRA NEO which I have checked is levelled correctly and I use painters’ tape to have that bonus adhesion. My PLA is OVERTURE PLA MATTE. I have attached screen shots of my code as well as Pictures of my prints.

    I would recommend sharing a UltiMaker Cura project file, while the screenshots of settings help it does not really answer most the questions everyone will have trying to help you.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
