Hi there,

I’m wondering if I could get some advice on why my prints are always failing at 0.2mm layer height

Attached is a pic, the first layers are perfect but as it gets to layer 3-4 I the print does not stick to the previous layers!

Printing at 0.1mm is absolutely perfect, first layer is perfect etc (in my opinion)

Just wanted to have the option for a 0.2mm height so the prints don’t take as long.

Printer is Kingroon KP3S Pro V2 with Klipper Slicer is OrcaSlicer

I can share configs from either if needed, or more close up pics.

Cheers

Brilliant, thanks for the insight! Hopefully orcaslicer has a multiplier for each layer height - not just per filament

I’d assume it does. I’ve always just used PrusaSlicer so I can’t speak to how Orca does it. If it doesn’t allow per-height settings, only per filament, you can always duplicate your filaments and just rename them to each layer height they’re calibrated for. So you’ll have a PLA 0.2, PLA 0.1, PLA 0.07, etc.
