Slow down wipe tower

Hey! I am using a MK3S+ together with a MMU2S.

Usually, I print everything in PETG and the printer works perfectly fine. i reduced the speed for first layer significantly for PETG and the result is perfect.

Mechanical issues with the MMU Unit are meanwhile solved ad the color change is stable.

Now that I want to use PETG together with MMU Unit, the wipe tower is done at such a high speed so the print starts off with a mess, destroying the first layer of the part imemdiately. Means that i cannot print without sitting next to the printer manually slowing down the speed during color change.

 

Anyone an Idea how to slow down the printer?

Idea would be to change the F Value in the G-Code by hand but that would be another workaround that is not ideal.

Alternatively, it would be even ok to change color without a wipe tower by extruding into a free area. But this again comes with effort to clean after each color change.

 

Thanks,

Michael
