Leaking
Hi!
I would need your help in optimizing my prints:
I have massive leaking from the nozzle with ABS (haven't tried with PLA so far). The nozzle temperature is set to 255 °C (I didn't change anything of the settings). What can I do to prevent that? Would reducing the nozzle temperature help?
Thank's for your help

Hi, not the end of the world. You just forgot to tighten the nozzle as said in step 17 here http://manual.prusa3d.com/Guide/5.+Extruder/56#s972 🙂
Stop the print, clean up as much you can while hot and tighten the nozzle 🙂 💡

Thank's a lot! I thought I did it, but apparently I needed brute force, a jaw spanner and an alligator wrench to tighten the nozzle 😀

Glad to hear that! It's free workout bundled with every printer 😉
