Why do i have gaps in my prints? Hi, Im having issues where i have gaps in my prints, ive rechecked the esteps and ive tried different print settings but it doesnt seem to help, i was using a 0.35mm jhead but ive switched to a 0.4mm E3D, i wasnt having these issues before the change, its even worse if i do a large print that has a large flat, its almost as tho the filament is being laid to thinly. Ive attached 2 pictures, the first one is the bottom layer of a wide print and the 2nd is of a treefrog. I even tried a fresh install of slic3r and repetier host Both are printing using repetier host 95f and slic3r 1.1.2. Print Settings 0.2mm layer height 40% infill 5 top and bottom layers 3 perimeters 30mm/s print speed 1.75mm ABS Anyone have any ideas? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359329#msg-359329 Mon, 14 Sep 2026 22:43:12 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,362220#msg-362220 Re: Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,362220#msg-362220 chris33 Printing Thu, 29 May 2014 14:21:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,362029#msg-362029 Re: Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,362029#msg-362029 virgodave61 Printing Thu, 29 May 2014 06:10:23 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359432#msg-359432 Re: Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359432#msg-359432
E-steps would only change if he switched out the extruder stepper and gears, not the hot end itself.]]> Dirty Steve Printing Fri, 23 May 2014 11:34:06 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359431#msg-359431 Re: Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359431#msg-359431 Dirty Steve Printing Fri, 23 May 2014 11:32:32 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359361#msg-359361 Re: Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359361#msg-359361 ElectroWomble Printing Fri, 23 May 2014 08:35:56 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359329#msg-359329 Why do i have gaps in my prints? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?262,359329,359329#msg-359329 Im having issues where i have gaps in my prints, ive rechecked the esteps and ive tried different print settings but it doesnt seem to help, i was using a 0.35mm jhead but ive switched to a 0.4mm E3D, i wasnt having these issues before the change, its even worse if i do a large print that has a large flat, its almost as tho the filament is being laid to thinly.
