I want to try to print, using my 2.0 in .4mm and .1mm layer hieghts.  Got the 2.0 yesterday, working amazing with standard modes, but I want to push this baby for these .4mm wall files I have.

The holes are now gone, however, the overall quality of his facial features are not as good.
I'm gonna keep messing with the settings, and I'll update ya'll if I find anything special.

The infill was set too low for that print, and I also think the width was set too low, causing the filament not to stick properly. I am trying it now with 0.5mm width, and a slightly faster speed. The hole in the back is now gone, and it's about half way done now, and it looks better already! I'll take pics when the print is done. So far, I'd say it's pretty good at printing at 0.06mm layer height (with the right setting that is).

Keep in mind, this is the first time I've done a print at this low of a layer height, so the settings aren't quite dialed in yet.

is that holes in black? did it print hollow? looks like a few ooze outs etc but not bad 1st try. thought it would ooze more out of layers.. wonder how a better Z screw would do for finer steps? I have measured 1st layer/brim b4 at that thickness with normal print

If it is worse than the prior print, I'll try again using a smaller width. What would you recommend setting the width at? Any other suggestions that may help?

To spread out, say, a .5mm line out of .4mm nozzle with 0.05mm layer height, does not give a lot of room for it to spread out. 

That said I've done prints at 0.05mm, I just disable Z-lift, and tend to only do one print at a time. Not usually worth it.

I'd be interested in hearing how that ends up. DaVinci's layer height is controlled by the screw drive so it should be a lot "finer" than the steppers on the carriage. I'd be curious just how "short" you could cut the layers before it couldn't drop the feed on the filament that low and still keep a smooth flow.
