Hey guys, I have a question I am hoping someone here has already experienced and solved: I am using a Prusa i3 printer, Slic3r, and Repatier. I am trying to nail out some quality issues, and subsequently am printing out a bunch of 20MM cubes. In that process, I notice that no matter what I set the speed settings in Slic3r to, the print takes roughly the same time to print. Even when I set everything to something fast like 300mm/s.
The pattern I am noticing, is that it seems the top and bottom layers move as fast as I set the settings, but the vertical walls of the cube move at turtle speed (which is 90% of the print, and why it doesn't seem to change the print times). Unless I am missing something, the vertical walls should just be considered "perimeter" and "exterior perimeters," right? But the head prints these layers ultra slow... I am assuming there is something in Repatier Host, or maybe firmware that is overriding the speed settings in Slic3r? But, I am honestly having great difficulty figuring it out. =/
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!
