  [1] |  | Anti-Stringing  Anti-stringing refers to techniques or settings used to prevent unwanted filament strands from forming between different parts of a print. Stringing occurs when molten filament leaks from the nozzle during travel moves, creating thin, hair-like strings. Common anti-stringing techniques include enabling retraction, reducing nozzle temperature, and optimizing travel speeds in slicer software. Using high-quality filament and ensuring the nozzle is clean can also minimize stringing. Anti-stringing measures are critical for achieving clean prints, especially for models with multiple parts or intricate features, where excessive stringing can affect the final appearance and require additional post-processing. |
