Why is this clogging?
Hi Prusa forum. I am printing something and it's clogging every like 5 hours, so I assume I'm doing something wrong. Could you help me figure out what it might be? What I'm doing:
I was printing in the Prusa Enclosure with ambient temperature in the enclosure roughly 30°C - 32°C. Nozzle size 0.25n and layer height 0.12mm. Input shaper was enabled. Material was PLA Silk (from a premium brand) and the temperature was 250°C (as recommended by the manufacturer to make it more shiny). I was printing these dragons in sequential printing.
RE: Why is this clogging?
Edit: Based on me cleaning and unclogging, it almost seems like the filament is getting stuck somewhere between the gearbox and the nozzle, rather than the actual nozzle-hole being clogged.
RE: Why is this clogging?
I've had this a few times and every time it has been damp filament despite bon some occasions have only been open for two minutes before starting to print.
Probably worth trying drying the filament.

Thank you for the tip. I am a bit skeptical though, especially since it prints so handsomely with the 0.4n, but perhaps I'll give this a try!
