Thanks kos! I tried those settings but my hotend keeps jamming. I'm thinking its related to extrusion speeds or amounts because it starts laying down a very thin layer and then jams up. Are you using a Prusa i3 with ramps 1.4? What hotend? I'm using the magma so I can only print ABS but I changed the temps for abs in your pla settings but still can't get it right.Quote

I switched to kisslicer a week ago and find it's print quality superior to slic3r. Here are my settings (I'm still tweaking them): [github.com]

Thanks for the suggestion. I installed cura and love the way it looks and functions. I haven't tried to print yet but I'll let you know. Also, under the settings, I saw a place to put your start and end gcode. I'd just copy my gcodes from slic3r and see how they work.Quote

Im using CURA on my Makerfarm i3 with .4 Magma with no issues.
The only thing I cant figure out on it is the start gcode. everything else works like a dream.

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. I usually always preheat my bed for 30 minutes before every print just because my bed warps a little as it's heating.Quote

I did just copy them over from Slic3r but it doesnt work the same.
Slic3r heats up the bed, then homes, then heats up the tip
CURA heats up the bed and tip, then homes.
I like heating up the bed first because it takes so much longer. I dont want the tip heated up and oozing out the tip while the bed heats up.
My current work around is just setting bed temp in pronterface and once its close to 110 I start the print.
