Stringing and "lines"

Hello, I've been having this issue for some time now. I tried different temperatures and retract and this issue is almost always present. PETG in this case but it also happens with PLA. It's a VCore 3.1 300 with a Rapido UHF with a 0.4 nozzle and a LGX Lite. Any ideas? Thanks

This does look to me like wet filament. You should try to dry it?

I can try it. I'm doing a extruder retraction calibration .. see if it helps

its a dance... balancing act of retraction speed and distance, temperature and speed of moves

did you get to dry the filament?

Not yet but I got a much better print. I had the extrusion mode true on the slicer and false on ratos. Changed that and it made a huge difference. Just need a bit of a tuning to the temp and retraction.

yeah, now you have only slight angel-hair, and that could be moisture, but now I would not stress it. (but do get a filament-drier, it's the best)

I do have one. I will do it on next print. Thanks for the suggestions 👍

they must be equal .. if you have true in ratos you have to check it on the slicer

@.gandalfpt you checked to use the retraction settings in the dashboard, is that what it means?
