PETG support problems ONLY

Hi there I've had my MK4 for about a year now and have absolutely loved it and had flawless prints most of the time until I started using PETG. I have a lot of experience printing in PETG from my last job, but for some reason I have had so much trouble getting the supports to work for me. The prints themselves are acceptable or exceptional but the supports are at worst a burnt blobby mess that needs to be cancelled mid print, or at best a very messy, stringy, untidy, and hard to remove. Im finally using printing for applications in which I need a bit more durability so PETG must be conquered for me! Ive tried tweaking the settings but due to the fact of the print itself being ostensibly perfect I think I need a bit more educated help! Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

 

MK4, firmware 6.1.3

RE: PETG support problems ONLY

The organic support feature may help out. Using this feature may cause first layer problems but clearing out the support is less difficult.
