Hello,

If you use I3 with Cura and are happy with your settings, Could you please it share it to me/us?

(I use 0.25 layer height, and I'm sure it could be better quality if I had the best settings in shell thickness, bottom / top thickness, temperature (PLA!), ....

Thank you!

I guess I just share anyway smiling smiley

layer .2mm
walls 1.2mm (300%)
infill often 10%
speed 60mm
top/bottom .8mm (400%)
filament retract distance 0.5-2mm, often 0.5 for now
skirt 3 lines to ensure plastic deposited onto bed enough

Rest are stock (hopefully)

I am using abs, shouldn't be a problem for pla too

Im using almost the same. I find that on the .4 nozzle, .2 layer height is best. It doesnt seem to like .3
