FILAMENT

Diameter (mm)

The filament diameter setting is one of the more important settings. Make sure that you update

this value periodically with your average filament diameter. While your filament may be referred to

as 1.75mm, it is more likely going to be near 1.7mm +/- 0.1mm. You will want this to be an accurate

average, as it will allow your printer to correctly calculate how much filament it is pulling into the

Extruder.

Flow (%)

This controls how much filament your printer is extruding in relation to speed. This setting is

mainly used to adjust for filament density variations. Leave this value at 100% as changing it can

lead to surface quality issues.

MACHINE

Nozzle Size (mm)

This defines your nozzle size. The slicing engine uses this value

combined with your other settings to determine how quickly

to feed filament into your Extruder. The WANHAO 3D

Printer uses a 0.4mm nozzle.

RETRACTION

Speed (mm/s)

Retraction Speed determines the speed at which your

filament is reversed out of the Extruder for travel moves and

when changing direction during printing. We recommend

keeping this set to 40mm/s.

Distance (mm)

Retraction Distance determines how much filament is pulled out of your Extruder on travel moves

and when changing direction. You will want to adjust this depending on temperature settings

and filament type. Higher thermal retaining filaments such as PLA behave better with a longer

retraction distance. Anywhere from 1mm to 3mm is a good starting range.
