I think 4mm retraction was my issue, as the heatbreak of the v6 ended up getting clogged half way through the print.

You really gotta keep this stuff flowing fast!

I use Fillamentum Timberfill these days, seems a bit easier to print.
I have retraction set at 4mm as you get a lot of stringing with it, I would think Woodfill will be similar.

Print it with mostly PLA settings?  Is 35mm/sec speed ok?

From what I read, you can't let it sit in the extruder long.

There is no control of that fan, the Repetier firmware does not have access to the pins that operate that fan. Just stop trying to control it and don't worry about what it does. It will not hurt your print for it to run all the time.

The fan on the Da Vinci unless you have modified the extruder to something else is not a layer fan and should always be on. It's purpose is to cool the actual extruder and feed tube. The printer is mad for ABS and the fan/extruder in stock form will have no impact on printing ABS. Do not turn it off or you will damage the extruder and motor.


oups ! I reconnect the plug!
So if I understand with DaVinci 1.0 and firmware repetier fan must always turned even with ABS?

That is correct. I think your confusion is with what people say about PLA. With PLA they recommend you turn your layer fan off for the first one or two layers. This is for PLA only. For ABS you can but normally dont use a layer fan. The Da Vinci 1.0 in stock form unless modified like Scobo did or with a hotend remake can not print PLA and that is why it does not have s layer fan.

Again the stock fan is to cool the feed tube and extruder so heat soak does not make it hot enough to prematurely melt filament and cause grinding or jams.

Although, I turn mine off in order to get the extruder up to temp quicker then turn it on as soon as it reaches the required temp.

There must be something turning the fan on at some point.

Do you mean the fan comes on but you don't want it to ?
