% of fill for printing MK3S parts

Hi,

I bought a used MK3S and I would like to print parts in orange 😉

The Z axis supports for example. Do you know what percentage of fill in do i have to use.

In advance, thank you

Also,  when printing the lcd cover there were two sizes of screen.  with 80mm, and I think one slightly larger.  make sure to measure your lcd and ensure you're getting the right size opening in the lcd cover.

RE:

I don't print anything with 20% grid infill anymore. I had too many situations in which I had crashes from the nozzle hitting infill. Since switching to 15% gyroid,  never had a problem again.
