New to Elegoo OrangeStorm Giga – struggling even with PLA prints
Hi everyone,
I recently bought an Elegoo OrangeStorm Giga and I’m honestly having quite a hard time getting decent prints, even with basic PLA. I already have experience with other 3D printers, although obviously much smaller ones, so I’m not completely new to printing.
I feel like this machine behaves very differently compared to standard-size printers, especially regarding:
- bed leveling
- flow calibration
- speed/acceleration
- adhesion
- temperature consistency across the bed
I wanted to ask if there are:
- already tested slicer profiles/parameters that work reliably
- recommended starting settings
- specific modifications or calibrations that are considered “mandatory”
- common beginner mistakes with the Giga
Any advice from people already using this printer would really help. Thanks!
