Paint On Fail
Relatively new to Prusa Slicer (5 mo.) and finally decided to try paint on supports. First two prints failed miserably. The last one produced something I had never seen before--the supports broke off in mid-print (see attached photo). Sorry I didn't save the paint settings in the project file but I basically painted the elbows and the underside of the nose(s). Since I have almost no experience with paint-on supports, I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
Can somebody help me with diagnosis / solution?
RE:
Not sure what's happening, but I use paint on supports almost exclusively. I've never seen anything like what you are seeing. All they do is allow you to select where supports go, nothing else is different. The fact supports are failing implies some other setting, like the support/part contact distances are too large? You might try organic supports to keep the support base attachment only on the print surface (don't build supports from the part).
