@shatty
i cant view those images. can you post normal jpgs?

Phaedrux

It looks like it was printed too hot. So dial it back to 200 and see how it goes.

Not bad for a first print! LOL I was at 220. Where can I set my bed temps and extruder temps during printing? In the filament config.g?

You set them in the slicer. Then during a print if you want to change them, you can use the web interface to entire a new temperature.

@Phaedrux TY. During heat up if i were to set in the UI, it would always revert. I had to wait until pre-heat was done

shatty

Also, Im using Creality Slicer. What is a good nonbranded software? Like top-notch. And how do I earn 1 reputation? This 60 sec post thing is annoying

Phaedrux

Give PrusaSlicer a try. Probably your best bet. You will have to do a bit of setup. I think it has a profile for the Ender 3 which should get you 99% of the way there.

@Phaedrux I tried Ultimaker last night but it seemed too complicated

Veti

prusaslicer is easier, it has far less options

What speed to print at? Fast (0.2mm), Normal (0.15mm), or HQ (0.1mm)?

Veti

yes print cooler.

also post your config.g

Fast (0.2mm)

i use this for most prints. and about 60mm/s on my ender 3.
