Surface small holes on the first layers PTEG printing
I have a surface issue on the first layers on the printing sheet (satin type) with PTEG filament. Up to two weeks ago perfect prints with different filament types (sample the picture with the orange filament), not I get small holes (picture white filament). I did again first layer calibration (twice), played a bit with temperature setting (eve if it is a Prusa filament), not much success.
I could not find something similar in the forum. Thanks for the support

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking more about a clog in the noozle. I shall go by steps and dry the filament, I usually manage well but indeed I left it out for a few days, I was not expecting it being so sensitive. I shall update with the findings, thanks a lot for your time.
RE: Surface small holes on the first layers PTEG printing
I have some PETG-carbon fiber that becomes unusable after about 5 days in open air. Experienced makers often argue this phenomenon, sharing a wide spectrum of opinion. User experience seems to vary primarily based on local humidity conditions and the type of filament. At my house this morning, the relative humidity was at 68%, and there is no way I could print PETG that has been left out at those levels and expect to get a nice looking print.

Dears, thanks to all. I add the picture as a reference for future cases: indeed, after drying the filament for 6 hours much better result (same filament and print settings as the picture of few days ago). Take care
