Slant PODs Print Setting for Print on Demand Products

Recommended Print Settings

  1. Layer Height: 0.2 mm

    • Why It Matters: A layer height of 0.2 mm strikes an excellent balance between detail and speed. This setting allows for a good level of detail in the print while keeping production times reasonable.

    • Best Practices: Use this setting for most prints, especially for items that require a balance of detail and durability.

  2. First Layer Height: 0.3 mm

    • Why It Matters: The first layer is crucial for adhesion to the print bed. A slightly thicker first layer (0.3 mm) helps improve bed adhesion, reducing the risk of warping and ensuring that the print stays in place during the build process.

    • Best Practices: We always ensure that the print bed is leveled properly before starting to maximize the effectiveness of this setting.

  3. Overhangs: 50 degrees

    • Why It Matters: Setting the overhang angle to 50 degrees ensures that our printer can handle most designs without the need for additional support. This is essential for creating models with intricate details or angles.

    • Best Practices: If you frequently work with designs that have significant overhangs, consider testing your prints with a slightly lower angle to evaluate quality.

  4. Infill: 25%

    • Why It Matters: A 25% infill strikes a balance between print strength and material usage. It provides sufficient internal support for most models while keeping material costs down.

    • Best Practices: For decorative items or those not subjected to stress, you may reduce infill. However, for functional parts, consider increasing it based on the required strength.

  5. Wall Thickness: 1 mm

    • Why It Matters: A wall thickness of 1 mm provides a sturdy exterior for your prints, ensuring that they can withstand handling and usage without compromising the internal structure.

    • Best Practices: Depending on your model, you may increase wall thickness for added strength, particularly for items that will be subjected to wear and tear.

  6. Brims: None

    • Why It Matters: By not using brims, you can save material and reduce post-processing time. This setting is particularly useful for models with a stable base, as it minimizes waste without compromising print stability.

    • Best Practices: If you encounter issues with adhesion, consider using a raft or adjusting the first layer height instead.

Utilizing the correct print settings is crucial for achieving success with your Etsy  or Shopify stores connected to our print farm. With a layer height of 0.2 mm, a thicker first layer, optimal overhang settings, moderate infill, sturdy wall thickness, and no brims, you can ensure that your products meet the high standards your customers expect. Happy printing!
