I regularly come across references to print speeds eg 30mm/s, without specifying which speed is referred to.
My slic3r/pronterface front end has 7 print speed boxes: [ perimeters, small perimeters,infill, solid infill,bridges,travel, bottom speed ratio ]. Theres also in a separate area retraction speed. My guess would be that the usual reference to speed refers to the first of these (perimeter speed), but its not clear, so which is usually meant?
Also, given a speed/print quality trade-off which of the above 7(or 8) has most effect on that aspect?
I would also be interested to read any experiences with adjusting speeds to improve/decrease print quality.
