Topic: Help fixing Print

Hi Guys,

I just started using my davinci 1.0 printer again. I previously used the XYZ way to level the bed. The hours spent just to find the right level is just not worth it anymore. Now, I followed the paper guide.

This is the result:

What do I need to correct here?

I am hoping I can get prints like:

I wish I had a photo of the keychain I made before for better comparison but, it definitely didn't look like the keychain above.

Re: Help fixing Print

Bed leveling has no affect on infill which is where your problem lies. If the printer has not been used for a while it is possible the filament is bad. Also depending on your software what infill settings are you using and extrusion width?

Then your filament has gone bad from sitting too long. If it gets moisture in it which it will, it will have all kinds of issue when printing.

Also note the terminator in your picture does not have an open top fill like your key-chain. It has a perimeter or outside wall all the way to the top.
