MMU3 Layer height restrictions?

Hi all,
I am doing my first walking attempts with the MMU3.
Plan is to print a ring (25 x 7mm) with engraved text and two alternating colors, such as Galaxy Black for 2 millimeters, Glow in the Dark for 3 millimeters and another Galaxy Black for 2 millimeters. I strive for the lowest possible layer height to achieve maximum smooth surface.

Somehow, I struggle setting the layer height below 0,15mm- is that works as designed or am I just doing it wrong?
Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks! 🙂

RE: MMU3 Layer height restrictions?

As your layer height gets smaller, your purge block needs to get bigger. 

There are a small number of profiles in the list. But you can manually adjust them in print settings, layers and peri

You may need to be in advanced mode...

Hey Joan,
thanks for getting back to me! I had to unlock the factory settings to override the preset 0,15mm.

Hope that was my only mistake.
Cheers!
