Speed Factor dont seem to increase speed

Your X and Y maximum speeds appear to be unusually low in the M203 command. Your accelerations in M203 are unusually low too.
Why are you using just 8x microstepping, when your X and Y steps/mm are not especially high? What type of printer is it?

Is that a belt driven X axis and leadscrew driven Y and Z axes?
Increasing microstepping to x16 with interpolation will make the motors much quieter. Your steps/mm will double because you have the M92 command after the M350 command.
-
yes it is
ok when this print has done i will try itdo i need to swap those settings round then?
M92 command before the M350 -
If you put the M92 command first and set the steps/mm as for x16 microstepping, then they will be adjusted automatically to account for any M350 command later in config.g.

Nice, that's handy. Does the Duet assume x16 or do we need to put the x1 value then have the M350 value adjust it to the microstepping?
Edit: Looks like it default x16 looking at the gcode command https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M350_Set_microstepping_mode
"a) Set Steps/mm correctly for the default 1/16 microstepping, then set the microstepping to the desired amount using M350:"
-
The Duet assumes x16 until it sees a M350 command.

sorted full speed ahead thanks
-
just one question what is the interpolated option and what difference does it make
-
The interpolated option makes the motors much quieter. It tell the drivers to generate x256 microsteps even though the Duet only sends step pulses at x16. It only works when you have x16 selected.
