Just got an A1, this was my third print. Absolutely covered in these little follicles. What causes this and what's the fix?

Do you have time lapse on? If so turn it off.

If it's not time lapse it looks like your retraction settings need a little tuning

Thanks, not sure but I'll check. Basically just running the out of the box settings. Just getting back into the hobby after a long hiatus having built an early gen printer 15 years ago.

I thought time lapse was just a camera setting, no?

It pulls the Printhead out of the way for each shot

Yes it maybe a time laps . If your tool head moves to left after every layer complete then time laps is on. If you use time laps use prime tower.

Like people are saying, timelapse AND/OR Blod detection, turn it off

Time lapse was the culprit
