overextruding at the beginning of a layer

Prusaslicer....... where to find the solution?

 

I'm getting way to much overextruding in the beginning of a layer.

This is happening on 1 PLA type/brand I'm testing. When using the exact same gcode on Prusament, Esun, Real, Hatchbox, and a couple more exotic brands, I get perfect results.

 

Where to search?

Is it an idea to start playing with more retraction here?

 

What I did already:

- lowered nozzle temp, so the filament should be less flow. I played with temps between  210 and 195 °C. (Normally I print around 203°C on the MK3s with an MicroSwiss RVS plated 0.4 nozzle). This isn't helping at all.

- lowered flow on the MK3s with the front knob from 95 to 75 (this is getting a better print, but is not perfect, nor the solution in the slicer). What I also find out is, the beginning of the layer is getting better, but the rest is getting a little underextruded.

I hope someone can point me in the right direction here.

RE: overextruding at the beginning of a layer

My guess is you may either need to adjust the linear advance for that particular filament, or that filament is configured to extrude a little extra for a deretraction.

For linear advance, see this page: http://projects.ttlexceeded.com/3dprinting_techniques_calibrating_filament.html#linear-advance

For extruding a little extra for a deretraction, see the setting "Extrude length on restart" either in the Printer Settings/Extruder n settings, or in the Filament Settings/Filament Overrides settings. (As the name implies, if set the latter will override the former settings.)

Or... I could be completely off base. 😉

Thanks Sembazuru,

 

I will check both sugestions.
