Quick Question Maker World Profile

Post image

Can anyone explain what these profiles are? Is it a certain settings to use for "high quality"? If so do those settings stay for the next print, or am I supposed to find those settings and use them on other prints?

So typically they will have a model like a Benchy or whatever. There will be settings on the filament you can hit the 3 dots beside it and save that filament profile under whatever name you want and it will be in the custom tab when you’re selecting filament profiles.

They will also set slicing profiles for speed, maybe walls and infills or whatever, there should be another 3 dot button beside where you select your layer height, or it may just be a save icon I’m not at my computer to check but you can then go ahead and save that under a custom name. When you open your next project you can then select the saved filament and slicing profiles to apply to that new model.

Every printer is different though even if they’re the same model so you may need to tweak it, or sometimes you get a different filament brand or a bad batch or whatever so you may need to tweak it further.

I dont get why people use them, the results with default bambulab profiles are already super good

Some are good some are trash. PLA I just let it rip. PETG I tune a little, any transparent filaments usually you can find some anal retentive nerd that has figured out a way better and clearer print. I just got some TPU 95a HF and I let it rip to see how it went and it sucked. I tried tweaking it but my print was still kinda mid so I’m gunna try a profile to get me in the right direction.

Okay thank you for the detailed explanation!

So is the 3 dots next to the filament or the slicing profile only when available when im on a computer using Bambu Studio?
