* This printer is in fairly rough shape mechanically. This causes the most problems with prints that have thin filled walls.

** Printing slower and at a higher flow rate can help with getting acceptable print quality.

*** 220°, 110% flow, print @ 25mm/s (1/2 speed), travel @ 60mm/s (also 1/2 speed), 0.4 mm nozzle size, 2.85mm filament size are the '''safe''' settings for this.
*** 220°, 110% flow, print @ 30mm/s (1/2 speed), travel @ 60mm/s (also 1/2 speed), 0.4 mm nozzle size, 2.85mm filament size are the '''safe''' settings for this.
*** Excellent results have been reported using 220° & 120% flow. '''However''', anything above 110% flow makes head jams very likely. (Some filament reels will work @ higher flow, while others constantly jam.) Thus reducing the travel speed is a better answer than increasing the % flow above 110%.
