Ich drucke mit dem Orca und habe mit dem gleichen Tower massives Stringing. 2. Visualization. I recommend that you first use the temp tower to find the best temp for the filament and set that in the filament settings. So I was wondering, should I print the temperature tower tests in the orca slicer with each print profile and therefore the speeds you intend to print at? To me this would make sense (and means a hell of a lot of work), because I always read the printer needs to print at higher temps due to its. Temp tower done, 230-260 which was the default in Orca so I just rolled with it. S.
