3D Jake ASA print settings
Hello,
I just can't get the above ASA to print.
The result is already attached for layer 1.
Settings:
Print bed 105°
Nozzle 235° (I've reduced the original settings in increments)
Retraction speed 40 mm/s
Retraction 1.5 mm
I've slowed down the printing process to 70%.
I'm using the satin sheet.
Where am I going wrong?
The only things that are currently printing without errors are PLA and PETG.
Best regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
I always use the smooth sheet for ASA and, out of laziness, simply use the Prusament ASA factory settings. The first layer always fits for me, and the rest is also fine for my (rather low 🙂 ) requirements.
Best regards,Günter

Did you add glue stick on the print bed?
When I print ABS or ASA, I always use glue stick on the bed.

You’ll need a brim as well as adhesive depending on the type of build plate you are using. With the satin sheet you need to ensure it is completely free of smudging from finger prints etc.
I’ve had a lot of success printing ASA on the Cryo Glacier plates. I don’t even need glue on that plate. I’ve given up with the Prusa Satin.

Hi,
i never use a glue stick on a satin board.
The filament adheres sufficiently.
It looks like the filament is too liquid.

Hi,
as you can see, there is a brim of 10mm!
But from then on, when he prints the outline, he starts to smudge.

Sorry, I didn't look carefully. I see there is quite a large brim. As @James Kirk pointed out you'll also need an adhesive layer like Magigoo (for example). Also, as mentioned, I don't use Prusa plates anymore. I've had nothing but issues with them. I print everything on the Cryo plate now including lots of ASA recently (I use Overture ASA).
RE: 3D Jake ASA print settings
Hi,
but did you think it's a problem of lack of adhesive?
For me it's look like filament is too hot.
Or do you think the filament is coming loose at that point?
Anyway, will look for another plate.
Best regards
Peter

I never printed ASA on the Prusa satin build plate without an adhesive layer. If I didn't I would have even the brim warping off the plate. I also had to make sure the plate was very clean first.
