One of my co-workers said to tone down the accel. I set it from 5000mm/s to 3000mm/s and it did not fix. Watching it, I think if I kept lowering the accel, i'd be where I am now. Stealth mode is significantly slower, usually I can hear when it moves real fast while NOT laying down filament.

I've had it for almost exactly a year and have over 1500 hours printing, and its been perfect until recently. I put it in stealth mode and so far, no issues. It is a machine so I expect issues but I also expect prusa to know their machines enough to troubleshoot. Well, at least I'm closer to fix

YOU ROCK! I'm in the same boat now. Stealth mode is working - (knock wood)
If I or prusa figures it out, I'll hit you up.
Thanx bra

oh, wait, I misread, you want it in stealth mode...

Gonna try swapping the sd card and re-tensioning the belt.

I'ver tested with 3 heads so far, same on all.

Stealth mode is already off. Thanx tho, appreciate the poSsible solutions.

Been in talks with them. I'll test a diff card.

LOL - you like a challenge. If I remember correctly, they are kits? I did the mk3s+ as a kit and the XL was partial kit. Sounds like you like to tinker.

I also have a Prusa XL, there are 2 screws for belt tension. It's very easy.
Are you looking at the Prusa Core, Bambu or something else?

The core xy's footprint is jsut the size of the printer, you need to consider the bed moving past the footprint. (that's just a small detail).
Curious what you are using?

I'm not sure I agree with the comparison. Anyway you look at it, there's movement in all 3 directions. Is a corexy more complicated, maybe a bit, but, as far a the print head, one runs x/y and the other runs x/z. Core's are typically enclosed so heat stays inside the printer. /1

I use sunlu. No issues

Hey there, I have a couple of printers, one being the X1C. I've had bed slingers and prefer the corexy's.
The P1S is similar to my X1C, imho, I'd go with the P1S.

There's a bunch of replies here, bottom line:
Do you want to print out of the box? - Bambu
Do you want to tinker with the printer and print? - Prusa
I have a Prusa XL and Bambu X1C. couldn't be happier. it going to come done to those questions and your budget. /1

I've had 2 bed slingers, Anker m5 - crap, prusa mk3s - workhorse but slow. IMHO, core xy's are better.

As yes, some filament is toxic, the more popular version is plant based.
"Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable biomass sources such as corn starch, sugarcane, cassava, or sugar beet pulp."

I was having similar issues and used glue stick or hair spray. Now, I got beds from @sliceworx.com
They work flawlessly.

From what I understand, 4d printing is just 3d printing with filament that morphs under certain conditions. (hot water for example)
