Tips for Reducing Stringing in 3D Prints

To reduce stringing on a print, try the following:

  • Lower the print temperature

  • Increase retraction distance

  • Increase retraction speed

  • If you live in a humid climate and the filament has been out a while, you may need to dehydrate it. Unless you know humidity is the cause, we recommend starting with changing the temperature and retraction settings.
