* Using Cura, seems to be what most people are using
Use the config bundle for prusa slicer, a copy is in this wiki under 'usage' and another copy is on the USB drive.
** flow settings are "hard-baked" into extrusion values in the gcode. So if you set flow to 95% in cura, there will NOT be an M221 S95 command in the gcode and so the printer will say on its screen that flow is 100%, but really the flow has been reduced.
 
Keep in mind that this printer has a 1mm nozzle installed. The slicer settings I uploaded set the line width to 1.2mm and layer height to 0.6mm. So for an object with 1 perimeter is the equivalent of 3 perimeters with a 0.4 nozzle (so decently strong). So for most objects 1 perimeter and 3 top/bottom layers is plenty of plastic and will be strong enough. This will save a shitload of time!!
