Tips for printing PC on the J1s

  • Dry your filament immediately before printing — PC is extremely hygroscopic. Even 2–3 hours of moisture exposure degrades print quality.
  • This printer has an enclosure — keep it closed throughout the print to maintain chamber temperature.
  • Use a hardened steel nozzle for filled variants (glass-fiber, carbon-fiber) — standard brass wears quickly.
  • PC is one of the most warp-prone materials. A brim of at least 5mm and an enclosure chamber above 45°C are strongly recommended.
