Stringing

🔍 Diagnostic Context: "Stringing" is one of the most common 3D printing defects. It is typically caused by incorrect retraction settings, excessive nozzle temperature, or wet filament. The profiles below have been tested and confirmed to minimize this defect. Always start by drying your filament — moisture is the #1 hidden cause of print defects.
