Hi everybody,
Recently i switched over to KISSlicer for better quality prints with my Cubex Duo. And what a BIG improvement. I ran 1.1 at first but recently got the 1.5 stable version. The countless settings got my head spinning like crazy, and i'm so frustrated. The print shown in the pics started out great, but then it created som holes. Almost like it spat it out of the nozzle. Any suggestions?

Did you increase the voltage on the print jet board with a sink on the driver chip ?
Are you using Cubeitmod6.05?

Hi Giovanni,
I'm currently running Cubeitmod6.05. But that was printet with a different version i think. I haven't increased the voltage because it is a standard hot end, and not a metallic. I saw that somewhere.
Would you recommend that?

With standard hot end you can set 1.6 volts but you MUST put a sink on the chip :

After you must reaclibrate the flow tweak, usually it will go down to 1 or very close to 1.

I've never used silicone for this but from the description of the product it looks OK.
