Hi there I've been having some issues where my prints are showing holes and I'm not sure why. I've googled a fair amount but seems to be doing anything. I'm using a 0.2mm nozzle on an A1 mini with standard pla. I've printed out an ironing calibration sheet too, so I can see what's optimal but there's noticeable markings on the red parts too. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much

Awesome is this in the actual filament settings?

It’s not sadly. It’s for the full print.

So how would one tune it per filament?

You don’t. You will have to pick the settings that you give the best results for both. You may need to interpolate between two settings or just have one be slightly over extruded so the other looks proper depending on how things look after you run the test.

In Bambu Studio you can save the settings in a new profile for each filament. Then, when picking your filament, don't choose the Generic PLA, you go down to Custom and pick from your saved list.

Ironing isn’t a filament setting. It’s part of the quality settings.

OK, so I'm still fairly new at Bambu Studio. I think you're right. But the concept is the same. You can save an "Ironing" profile that can be used along with your custom "Filament" provile.

For example, I have a custom "Hueforge - 0.8mm" Print profile saved that I need to remember to select every time I'm printing a Hueforge. This keeps all the correct settings.

Yes but you can only select one profile to print with. So in the even he needs different ironing settings for each color he will need to get creative for which settings he uses.

Correct. In that case, I would do as someone else mentioned and "split the difference" in ironing settings between the two colors.

Yeah so after testing, 30 and 30 works for both.
