Second layer printing too high
-
Hey
I am running a MK3 Bear with the Duet 3 Mini 5+ (v0.4)
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 Mini 5+ 3.3beta2 (2021-03-10)
DWC: Duet Web Control 3.3.0-b2
Slicer: Prusaslicer v2.3.0My first layer seems to be perfect but once the printer continues to print the second layer, it seems that it is printing it too high, causing it to look severely under-extruded.
I have seen this post about a similar issue but was not sure if there was a fix mentioned that would help me: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/20460/second-layer-jump

EDIT: I also just saw that while the print currently is at layer 5, DWC displays "Layer 0 of 189" on the "Status page".
Not sure if this is related but seems like it could?
Thanks!!!

Post your bed.g and any other macros called in your homeall etc.
Can you share your entire sliced gcode file?
What type of probe is it?
Is your extruder calibrated?
Are you using mesh compensation?

@phaedrux Thanks!
Gcode: low_cube_80_0.2mm_PET_MK3_41m.gcode
Probe: SuperPinda
Extruder is calibrated, yes.
I am using mesh bed compensation.

I added the ";E" comment in Prusaslicer to the end gcode:
G4 P200 ; wait M104 S0 ; turn off temperature M140 S0 ; turn off heatbed M107 ; turn off fan {if layer_z < max_print_height}G1 Z{z_offset+min(layer_z+30, max_print_height)}{endif} ; E Move print head up G1 X0 Y200 F3000 ; home X axis M84 ; disable motorsNow the print also shows the right size in DWC + whatever value is used for Z-hop. Example:
- Z-hop = 0.4mm
- object height = 10mm
- height displayed in DWC = 10.4mm
It also seems to print the second layer fine now. Initially when I added the ";E" comment, it caused the first layer to be squished way too much (it was dialed in nicely before applying the comment). So I think something was off with the first layer before I added the comment which caused me to compensate with baby stepping and then carried into the second layer.
I will do a few more tests now.
