Little holes with new extruder?
Hello,
since I've changed my extruder to an Bondtech, now i have little holes in my print. Can someone Tell me what this could be??? Bondtech said i have to set the steps to 415 for the extruder. Could this be to low?
Thanks

could it be that they are seam points?

No it was the Z-length retraction. The lenght was at 3.2mm and i changed it to 2mm. Now the holes are gone!!!

basically you changed it back to defaults (screenshot is made to show the defaults)

I know but for the Mini it is 3.2 I don't know why.

I know but for the Mini it is 3.2 I don't know why.
Because the Mini has a bowden extruder. Not a direct extruder like the one the i3 MK3 uses. Those extruders usually need more retraction to compensate for the clearance within the PTFE-tube.

Okay but a friend of me has a bondtech, too and He didn't need to change the lenght! How can this be?

Strange, the screenshot I posted is from a stock PRSlicer with only a Mini profile...

Look at the lock, its opened. So it isn't stock.
RE: Little holes with new extruder?
That is what I did when I opened the lock it showed me the value of 2

I don't know man, I can only tell you what I was doing. Why its now 3.2 or 2 i don't know.
RE: Little holes with new extruder?
It is strange indeed, I have located the INI profile and loo what I found
retract_length = 3.2
thus this is the value the printer really uses (when the lock is enabled)
