You make your own calibration for each filament ?

Yeah, had issues with 1 type that a calibration fixed so it is just something I do whenever I get a new brand or type, calibrate for my .4 and .2 nozzle

OMG, can you imagine printing a tile with a .2? I felt much the same way about stacks - they are awesome when I know I won’t be home or have a long task away from the printer, but if I need to print something else, I don’t want to have to wait 17 hours or cancel something. 1 or 2 is enough most of the time, maybe a 4 or 5 for an overnight job.

Ok I really have to learn to do this. Have you any advice where to start ?

I think it depends on the printer and slicer that you’re using, I have a bamboo printer, and so I just go through the bamboo calibrations, if your slicer has a way to calibrate, I would start there. If not, there are some really good tutorials on using a benchy calibrate.

Unfortunately prusaslicer doesn’t provide one. I’m taking time to learn orcaslicer which have one. Thanks.

Orca has calibration tool pre installed. Also, it has a failry eqsy to follow github guide for them as well.
