Troubleshooting

Z offset

To get a good first layer. On newer printer this can be done within LCD screen, adjusting Z-Offset option. Older printer will need to manually adjust the bed with knobs

The more negative your Z-Offset is, the closer it is to your bed

Example

Good:

Bad:

Too close to bed, make Z-Offset less negative

Too far

Too far from bed, make Z-Offset more negative

Bad Adhesion

  • Slower print speed (10mm/s initial layer parameter and 30mm/s infill)
  • Clean your bed with Dawn dish soap and water
  • Redo Z-offset (if you know your z-offset is good then skip this part)

Stringing

When retraction properly tuned, this has the effect of removing stringing, the unwanted oozing of plastic between two points of the model.

G-Code

Enable saved mesh in G-code

If you think CR-Touch is not doing its job, check your sliced G-Code M420 If you have Klipper KAMP enabled, you dont need M420, it will do a mesh everytime a print happens

  • My usual first question: Does the gcode include a M420 S1 command after the G28 command to enable the saved mesh?
"....
G28 ;Home
M420 S1; Enable mesh leveling
