Tronxy X5SA Pro - printing too slow.

catshow

I'm a noob to 3D printing, but I can't figure out why my printer (Tronxy X5SA-Pro stock with Duet 3) is printing so slow. I checked the M203 line and the values are the same as another forum member. If someone can tell me what I did wrong here, I would appreciate it.

Thanks

@catshow Check it's not your slicer program (which are you using? Cura, PrusaSlicer, S3D?) sending motor settings gcode at the start of the print. Post a gcode file that's causing the problem.

Thanks for responding. This is a BL Touch mount for my printer.

Seems fine, and the slicer (Cura) isn't changing motor settings. Print speed for the first layer is set at F1800 which is 30mm/s, and increases to F3600 (60mm/s) for subsequent layers. Are you expecting more that this? If so, increase the speeds in the slicer. Your maximum speeds in config.g should allow higher speeds.
