I’ve been having some serious issues getting PETG to print well, and I was wondering what settings other are using with success? I’m using a bedslinger in an enclosure and normally i print PLA with 200mm/s.

What are you doing for nozzle/bed temp, cooling fan, printing speeds etc? enclosed/open?

What is your printer capabilities normally for e.g. PLA?

    It’s been in my dryer for close to 36h @51°C, it’s acting the exact same as before, no change, so I’m not sure it’s moisture related TBH.

      Ah yeah that is good, just making sure because it has caused me a lot of strange issues hah.

      One thing that prob doesn’t matter but I usually dry PETG at 55 or 60, not sure how much of a difference that will make, 51 might be warm enough though. From what I have learned, it has to be warm enough that the moisture can escape the plastic (usually just below the glass transition temp) so you might try turning it up a bit if nothing else works because the moisture might not be escaping.
