Topic: Blob Lines after fan installation

Hello,

Since i installed lawsy's fan mod, my prints have been having some weird lines going across them. Ill attach a picture (Top: Before fan, Bottom: after fan), the only reason i wanted a fan was to help with very small parts, because everything else prints fine, but  i dont know a way to make the fan turn off when i dont need it cause its controlled by repetier host. Any suggestions would be great, also should i just remove the fan all together or are there settings that can help this issue.

Re: Blob Lines after fan installation

In Slicer you can create another filament configuration and disable cooling entirely for it. You just have to remember to select the right one when you slice the object before printing or just turn it on/off as needed. I can't tell you the exact steps to take as I'm away from home at the moment without access to a computer with Repetier on it and don't want to rely on memory to describe how to do it.

It's just a checkbox in the cooling section of the filament configuration tab, click through the configuration settings in Slicer until you find it.
