I would really appreciate it if someone could help me with this. I’m having an issue with my Sovol SV06, which is that I get a lot of stringing. I’m still fairly new to 3D printing, so I have no idea what could cause this and how I could go about fixing this. I already searched for this issue online btw but didn’t really find anything helpful.

The only change I made to this printer is that I hooked up a Raspberry Pi 4 to it and installed Klipper and Octoprint. I’m also using PrusaSlicer with the config from here.

      215c is probably too high for PLA

      Maybe try out a Temp Tower and see where the sweetspot is on your stuff.

      I run mostly Pollymaker PLA and I find the best prints at 190c.

        I could try a lower temperature but I don’t know what a temp tower is

        Edit: I just looked up what a temp tower is, makes sense to try that in general to find the optimal temperature
