Support Extrusion Too Thin with 0.8mm Nozzle
Hey everyone, I'm having an issue when switching to a 0.8mm nozzle for larger prints. The main model prints fine, but the support structures come out under-extruded and weak. It seems like the slicer is still trying to use a much thinner extrusion width (like it would for a 0.4mm nozzle), and the printer just can't handle such a small flow through a large nozzle.
I've already tried slowing down support print speeds, but it hasn’t helped much. The supports still come out stringy, weak, or incomplete.
I suspect the issue is the support line width being too narrow for the 0.8mm nozzle. So a couple of questions:
Where can I find the setting to adjust the support line width?
I'm using ABS, anyone got a good setting setup for extrusion widths for 0.8 nozzle?
Thanks in advance!
