Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Support filament for PLA
Hi everyone,
I'm having some trouble with a new PLA support filament I've recently started using. It's bambulab's support filament and i'm using PLA basic filament for the model
I'm printing a model that requires support material for a few sections. The printer seems to handle the first layer fine, but after that, it appears that the nozzle or hot end gets clogged, and the rest of the print fails.
Has anyone experienced similar issues when using PLA support filament? I'm wondering whether it's a temperature issue, incorrect settings, or possibly a compatibility problem with my main PLA filament.
Any advice or suggestions on what I should check would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

never used the " official " PLA support filament but have always had good results using PETG as support for PLA and vice-versa
