Printing TPU
How is tpu working with the 2.5 upgrade?
Re: Printing TPU
I've printed some TPE/TPU I had lying around to test this and it printed just fine. It detached a bit from the heated bed in a corner but otherwise it printed without any issues.
Tried printing a Marvin but it detached from the bed at some point so it didn't finish, but the details were very good up to that point.

Good, thanks. Usually my problem was getting it off the bed until I found out alcohol just lifts it off. I just finished my 2.5 last weekend and have tried pla so far but I did quite a bit of tpu with my mk2s and I never had a problem with tpu and the extruder gear. I do find there is odd little noises coming from the new gears now which I never had before.

I know, I get some rattling noise on the X axis and the printer overall is more noisy than my MK2s even though I've changed all the bearings to Igus. Sounds like the bearings on the gears make the noise or the springs for the idler cover.
