If greater than 0, this is the distance away from parts to create a perimeter layer that in
affect, wipes when starting the layer. Default= 0mm.
Multiple Extruders
Support Material Extruders:
The index of the extruder to use for support material. R1 3D printers only have one
extruder; this should always be set to 1.
Advanced
First Layer Extrusion Width:
Setting this to greater than 100% lays down more material and can often help the first
layer have better adhesion to the print bed. Recommended 1-1.5mm range.
FILAMENT SETTINGS
Filament
Diameter:
This should be set to the actual diameter of the filament you are using in your printer.
Stock R1 printers can only accept 1.75mm filament.
Extrusion Multiplier:
All extrusions are multiplied by this value. Increasing it above 1 will increase the amount
of filament being extruded, decreasing it below 1 will decrease the amount of filament
being extruded. It is highly recommended to leave this set at 1.
Extrusion Temp:
The default temperature to set the extruder to. Can sometimes be overridden for a
different temp on the first layer. Set ABS extrusion to 230-240c and PLA to 205-210c.
Bed Temp:
The default temperature to set the bed to. Can sometimes be overridden for a different
temp on the first layer. Set to 0 to eliminate bed temp commands. Set ABS bed temp to
75-85c and PLA bed temp to 0-60c.
Cooling
Enable Extruder Lift:
Moves the extruder up off the part to allow cooling.
