Hello community.
Newbie need for help here.
I have a FlashForge Creator Pro, learning with PLA.
My prints are OFF, corners are OFF and somehow the surface of its rough.
I attached here my settings and photos of the prints.
Appreciate any advice …
The print needs more cooling. Point a box fan into the printer until you can print yourself a nice print-cooler mod.
And stop using RepG for slicing, it was abandoned years ago. Makerware version 2.4.x is a much better free slicer for the FFCP. (Don’t use recent Makerbot Desktop versions, they’ve been getting less and less compatible with clone printers like FlashForges.) You can find links to download that version in various places – the FlashForge Google Group is a good place to look.
You can try adding “mouse ears” to the corners for more bottom layer surface area. And a heated bed would help.
@DEM_GER Did you print with a raft? I see what I think are indications of a raft along the edge of the print. If not you need to adjust your Z height. Proper Z height adjustment has to be the number 1 reason why prints don’t stick correctly. Amongst my flock of printers I have a Fabrikator Mini that has no heated bed and just using Painters Tape I get great prints that don’t lift. It wasn’t always that way though. It can take a bit to get the feel of what that first layer should be set at, but once you get it you will look for it whenever you make changes to your printer.
-Good Luck
