Then in your slice profile try these numbers.

I am also making the assumption that you have gone through the proper calibration process for extrusion stepper and flow rate as explained here.  http://www.soliwiki.com/#Calibrations

I have a flashforge creator pro and I'm having a hard time trying to have a smoth surface on a small print. I tried to increase the temperature as much as I could and improved a little. Is there something else I can do to have a smooth surface?

Thanks in advancehttp://soliforum.com/i/?GOdSJo7.jpg
