New Bee MK2

Hello friends, ı have recently built a kit and had a few prints sone of them was fine but some of them had some artifacts.

I have added sone photos, like to know if this is the best I can get from this printer or Are there any settings to improve the end result.

I downloaded this filament holder from thingiverse, used cura to create a gcode file with the low setting (0.15)

Any help will be appreciated.

Cura 2.3.1 on MAC OSX Sierra + Original Prusa i3 MK2

Definitely not the best to expect. I saw that same file on Thingiverse and loaded it up to modify it, it had some issues. Anyways, have you tried Slic3r? The Prusa MK2 version is setup for the most part for the MK2 and even the higher res print settings come out better than that. Once you are comfortable with how its printing, if you wish to use cura you will have some good reference settings from Slic3r to use.

Yeah, its that guy... 3D Nexus

Re: New Bee MK2

Ancientwolf, thank you for your advice. I recently bought the Simplify3D. and before trying with the new slicer I realised that the Y axis belt was a bit loose. One of the screws of Y axis motor has been felt off 😯 I fixed the screw and tighten the belt and re-calibrate.

I didn't try the same cone shape model yet but one of my other problematic print was printed far better in quality. I have imported the MK2 profile for S3D and given a shot for a 0.1 quality print. It is still printing now, so far so good.

I think Simplify3D worth the price. Cura was not good to go for me because I am a Mac user and I was unable to import Cura settings on OSX. (.ini file?)

You don't need to import any settings in Cura. I'm a mac user and version 2.3.0 and later works with the prusa mk2 directly. Just select the mk2 when you add a printer.

You can also import the settings, but you'll have to manually store the settings file somewhere. You should not need to do that, but it can be used to for example add a nozzle size selection drop down box if you know what you are doing.

Also the new slic3r works really well, better than Cura in many cases.

Simplyfy3d is a great slicer. I use it across my 6 different 3D printers. I do well with it. Some people complain about the price. It can be installed across two computers. On my PC laptop and BaseStation PC and workhorse. Try it.
Soon to retire two 3D printers free, to charity Makers local to me.
