How can I improve "stringing"?

Printing looks good but there's lots of stringing. What can I do to improve it?

Thanks

60 chess sets at a time huh?  What filament is this, I suspect it is damp ... try drying it.

If that doesn't help save your project as a .3mf file

Files > Save Project as

Zip the .3mf and post it here. It will contain both your part and your settings for us to diagnose.

Cheerio,

What Diem said.

Is that PETG? If so, people reported to reduce PETG stringing with z-lift set to zero and reduced retraction length of 0.4. But I personally get the best results with nicely dried PETG and the default settings with just a little extrusion correction(extrusion multipier 1.03 but this might be specific to my printer/hotend).

 

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
