I tried printing a disk with the bed at 70c and it looks better. Going to try with it even higher. This sheet has a +0.350 z offset compared to my normal PEI sheet, so that might contribute to low heat conduction.

It was out of mind until I got this new build plate with a fancy texture that I want to imprint on my prints.

This is PLA, I can't get PETG to stick to the "PEO" bed plate.

I thought genies were bitter because they're trapped in a lamp and forced to grant wishes?

Thanks, now I'm hungry

I tried adjusting the z offset to raise the nozzle, but it didn't help.

My bl-touch mount broke so I've been doing manual bed leveling for a while. I just finished printing a 185x185mm part (half of a dactyl keyboard) and the first layer looked great from the top.

Edit: I also deleted the old bed mesh from my klipper config when the bl-touch broke

40/200 looks the same as 60/220. I can try 60/210 but I don't think it will be any different.

It's hot - 60 bed, 220 nozzle. I'll try 40/200

Layer adhesion is great.

No, this pattern isn't coming from the bed. The bed actually has a polygon pattern that I'm trying to get the plastic to pick up. Sellers on Amazon/ebay/Ali are calling it PEO, but it's really just PEI with a fine texture that diffracts light. The pattern from the bed comes through really well on the perimeter of anything I print, but not the center.

I forgot to mention, but I also played with the extrusion multiplier (both directions) and it didn't make a difference. I've also gone through the klipper docs and TeachingTech's calibration guide, the printer is fairly well calibrated at this point.

If you need to replace a cheap nozzle after each medium-sized print with abrasive filament, then I'm thinking print quality will suffer towards the end of a larger print (like >250g, but definitely >1kg). Not having to replace nozzles mid-print makes the $70 nozzle seem like a better deal. Depending on what you print and how much you print, of course.

It's a lot faster to stick an existing web ui into an electron app than make a true native app.
