Print Issue Troubleshooting Help
I am running into a problem with some new filament that I'm using. This filament is htpla gray from Polymaker, which is pretty decent quality. I've used the black with no problem at all , and have printed with it perfectly for a few months. But the gray was on sale , and I figured it shouldn't be too difficult to print with. You can see from the images that there are a couple of issues. The first is under Extrusion of some layers towards the top of the vertical fine artifacting test print. The second issue is the surface texture of the print. There is a ropiness to the horizontal layer lines, and I'm not sure what's causing that.
I've done the calibration on the filament in Orca slicer. The filament has been dried for well over 5 hours. This is the final calibration for vertical fine artifacting, which you can see has some issues.
Any help with these would be much appreciated. I've added images to show you what I'm talking about.
