2.85mm filaments offer enhanced feeding consistency in the printer, reducing the likelihood of jams and ensuring smoother prints. Their diameter allows for greater control over the flow of the material, producing detailed and reliable outcomes.
Switching between filament sizes may be possible but depends on your printer's capability. Printers specifically designed for 2.85mm filament might require modifications or a different extruder to accommodate 1.75mm filament effectively, ensuring optimal print quality and machine performance. Generally speaking, it is recommended to stay with the filament diameter your 3D printer was designed for. Even with the necessary modifications, you may see reduced print quality with a different filament diameter, and the printer manufacturer will likely not be willing to provide support for any issues you encounter after modifying the printer.
Storing your 2.85mm filament in an airtight container with desiccants is crucial to prevent moisture absorption. Moisture can degrade filament quality, leading to poor print results. Additionally, consider using a filament dryer before printing to ensure optimal moisture levels.
Adjusting your printer settings for 2.85mm filament involves setting the correct diameter in your slicing software, which affects the extrusion calculations. Additionally, you may need to tweak temperature, flow rate, and retraction settings based on the material and printer model to achieve the best print quality.
