Time estimation excessive
Hello All,
I've a problem with the estimated times by PrusaSlicer.
In this case it estimates more than one day of printing :
When the file is ready to print via my Octoprint, the estimation is 3 hours :
After several prints I know that Octoprint is much closer to reality than PrusaSlicer.
In this case I will have something like 5 hours print.
The printer is an Ender 3.
Is there a settings I'm missing in the slicer ? One day off is quite a big difference.
RE: Time estimation excessive
Although I get excellent estimates from my PrusaSlicer for my MK3S, I also use the PrintTimeGenius plugin for my OctoPrint setup. https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/PrintTimeGenius/ This plugin gives me excellent runtime estimates. Down to the minute, at least.
RE: Time estimation excessive
I know about the OctoPrint plugins.
Apparently I'm the only one to have this issue, it's not a big deal, but it's strange.
There must be a settings somewhere that I've wrong.
Octoprint makes an error of ~ 0.5 x
PrusaSlicer makes an error of ~ 10 x
RE: Time estimation excessive
My PrusaSlicer estimates are usually within the ballpark. Of course I use the I3 MK3S.
My guess is that something about the Creality config in PrusaSlicer is not dialed in correctly.
