UM2 Default Material feed percentage

Was trolling through the "Tune" options during a print and noticed that the "Material Feed" percentage was defaulting to 107%.

Has anyone else ever seen this with a new machine? I upgraded the firmware immediately after setting up the printer.

    Nice to know. When I first started printing with ABS I thought I was getting over-extrusion on the first few layers as the print head.seemed to be ploughing through ridges of material from adjacent passes. Went away after a few layers so could have just been my build platform being a calibrated a little too close.

    Going to run Triffid Hunters calibration tests to see how my printer fares in stock settings. Am getting some pillowing on the top most layers when I printed Coffins Cube so need to look at the fan settings and experiment with temperature. In general, I feel I am getting poor bridiging performance so hopefully that will help.

        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.
