Hey, when i want to print something which has 2 colors in it, therefore switching the extruder every layer and so on, I have seen a problem with the switching part because every time it switches it just stops a bit before moving on and when it stops it kinda drools out filament and slacking it onto the print. It is not much every layer but it stacks up and after a while there is a whole lot of material that should not be there and makes problems to the hotend becouse it can get stuck there aswell.
Anyone has the same issue or has anyone had succesful prints with teh double extruder?
The calibrate part went pretty fine but there arent many layers.
@denishungnguyen Awesome prints!
You can reduce the oozing by increasing the nozzle switch retraction distance and nozzle switch retraction speed in Cura, this should fix the issue. Also reducing material flow and temperature (slightly) will also help. Make sure to set these for both extruders!
I am experiencing very similar problems. After a pretty much perfect calibration print I went for the two color cat print in the download area. Whilst generally precision seems quite good I have traces of extra filament after each extruder switch. Tried to add layers of the Tape but it wont really fix the problem. Adeel, any suggestions how we can prevent this from happening?
