I've gone from a 0.5mm nozzle to a 0.3mm.Haven't tried a print yet with the new nozzle. Which software/firmware setting(s) do I need to change? Thanks in advance.

Carve: Edge width over height (1.5), layer thickness (0.3) instead of 0.4 for the 0.5mm nozzle.
Inset: Infill width over thickness (1.5)

these should improve your print quality significantly but I found that I had to calibrate other settings to get the best out of the change.]]> aplavins General Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:53:57 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,127810,127869#msg-127869 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?1,127810,127869#msg-127869 -------------------------------------------------------
