Clogging in top of organic supports

Failed print #2

This print has failed 3 times now at around the same point. At first, I thought of heat creep and printed the second one with the (large closet) enclosure opened. That failed too, and as it seems to happen in a very retraction-heavy place of the print, I tried editing the model so that it would need less support at the corners. Now, that failed too (again 10 hours into the print...).

Failed print #3

This is with the "0.2 mm Quality" profile, organic supports and "Prusa PLA" (the PM filament Prusa sold before Prusament) on a MK3S. I guess the problem is related to the retractions, and will probably try with classic supports next time. I do however remember having had issues with retraction-heavy prints on this printer before, so it would be nice to get it solved anyway.

Any ideas?

 

Slicer

Also, I wonder why the slicer do retractions between non-perimeter-crossing supports, since I think most people won't care about stringing between supports, and it increases the risk of heat creep.

Kind regards,

Mark

RE: Clogging in top of organic supports

I'm experience a very similar issue with my Prusa Mini, failing twice at the same layer, right when a large section of organic supports end.
Have you found any more information about the issue?

RE: Clogging in top of organic supports

I experienced the same issue with organic supports. When I printed multiple objects at once with organic supports, the prints often failed slightly before the interface layers. When I printed only one object at once, then it worked. As Mark has written before, it might be frequent retractions at the organic supports. It would be great if I could deactivate the retractions between organic supports only. Maybe I will print some failed prints again, but completely without retraction...
