A Little Calibration Can Go A Long Way

My normal settings for PETG were not working too great so I re-ran some calibration things and got it tuned up.  Was really impressed with the result - no stringing! The recommended temp on this filament is 240 so I am running it a bit cooler, and it does not seem to effect the strength - but if that is a requirement, I'd probably go hotter and try using the fan.

EDIT 7-31-2020: This is still a work in progress, and I am now trying to tune the acceleration and jerk settings since my print quality has taken a bit of a nosedive, but I rarely print PETG so it may just be the difference in filaments.

Filament: Duramic PETG (white)
Temps: 233 / 70 C
Flow: 101%
Speed: 40mm/s
Fan: off
Retraction: 5.6mm @ 45mm/s (CR10S Pro with Microswiss All Metal Hotend with 0.4mm nozzle)
Combing: Not In Skin

This printer does not have linear advance since it uses the TMC2208 drivers.

Thingiverse seems to be having problems today, but I think the models were:
