Prints bad since upgrade to 3.x
-
Hello,
Last week I updated my duet 2 wifi from 2.5.x to 3.x (newest). After a lot of problems with the board and erasing and flashing again but I got it working. But now my prints suddenly got a lot worse.
I produced a new config file with the reprap configurator because of the new M codes. But I configured this with the old config next to me to get it the same.
Basically my prints look like over extruding/not retracting. Blobs are forming on some sides and top levels often look ugly.
This is retraction test print with the right tower form 1 to 4mm and left from 4 to 8 mm. As can be seen the most ugly part here are the blobs on the round part. How does this get here?
I calibrated my extruder for steps per mm and that is right. I have a bowden E3d titan extruder with a V6 E3D hotend. Printer further is a self-built CoreXY setup.
I already lowered jerk and acceleration a lot but it doesn't make a lot of difference.

Anyone have any ideas what could be the problem here?

Also just printed a temperature tower. Looks quite normal expect the numbers. On the left part the temperatures are printed but as you can see only parts of the 1's and 2's are visible. The other numbers are printed with blobs.

Is your max speed set too low? Perhaps it's limiting your travel moves?
Can you post your full configs from both RRF2 and RRF3?

Probably not a good idea to disable interpolation.
Are your thermistor values correct?
-
Thanks for your response.
Currently not home, tomorrow night again, so then I will post my full config.
Yesterday I tried again some things and next to the firmware also looked in Cura.
There I adjusted some values in mesh and seam corner and the walls look a lot better now. Only the weird thing is that with RRF2 I didn't had this changed.I tried to print with speeds from 30mm/s to 100mm/s. Had top speed before on 12000.
Ah the interpolation on the extruder. I will turn that on first thing when I get back!My thermistor values seem to work okay.
With the walls better I tried some standard prints but now the top layer has some ugliness. In the first it somehow completely screwed up the top part and the second one the full top layer. However this is with ironing enabled in Cura but this worked fine for me in RRF2. This is all printed with nozzle 0.4 and height 0.15.

@bierent is your print cooling fan still working?

Do you still have your config from RRF2 to compare with?

Yes sorry for the late respone Phaedrux, had a bit of covid.

Interpolation on the extruder is back on and reinstalled a bltouch and filament sensor last day. The bottom side and top side of the prints look a bit better now but I printed this pretty big tool holder last night but the sides are just not nice enough for a printer. I understand that the corner parts are something I should work on in Cura but what is remarkable that round the 10th layer or something on all sides the outer wall is bad. Furthermore as you can see the side with the puzzle piece is pretty bad but the other side looks way better, a bit weird this.
Furthermore all sides except for one are a bit bumpy, bit visible but you can feel it pretty good.

Your axis configuration is different between what you had in RRF2 and now in RRF3. Most notably a large change in your steps per mm for the extruder, which could explain the over extrusion. The changes to extruder acceleration and jerk etc could also play part.
