Nozzle keeps hitting the print mostly infill and supports.

Z offset but it can be better. this cant also be the issue. Flowrate first i upped it now i downed it to 0.92 or 92 percent... but its still hitting the print. Esteps ive calibrate multiple times. and each time the same amount came out or a similar...

Lower the infill percentage

Need more information... Where is it hitting the print? Is the print warping and getting clipped by the nozzle? Overhangs lifting?

its hitting on the support the infill percentage is already super low like 5 percent it mostly hits on the support not the infill z hop is a fix but its makes my print string like crazy

that suggests your retraction isn't tuned. Have you tuned your retraction?

i have at the moment its 0.4 and speed is 40 but got the recommenadation to turn off z hop because it createds stringing and It does.

I thought there was a way to reduce the extrusion multiplier for just infill but looking through my slicer settings I don't see it How did you calculate your extrusion multiplier?

I printed the cube with only the walls the ellis calibration guide and messured it and its prefect

in superslicer you can control the width and spacing for infil, you could try lowering it so it effectively reduces the flow

what type of infill pattern do you use?

Im using softfever and this sounds a rather complicate solution. I dont mind using zhop for instance if it fixes the thing.

changing a parameter is a complicated solution?

no not necessarily but i never had to do this with any printer ? seems a bit weird to me

What other printers are we talking about? Did they have the same hotend and extruder combos?

understand your point thanks alot for the help. Do you recommend to keep z hop enabled and then focus on dealing with the stringing. Or zhop dissabled and focus on the bumping nozzle

I personally don't use zhop, but that's me. I think either can work, up to you what you prefer

Ill try again without zhop and do what youve told me Unfortunatly orca slicer does not seem to have this feature 😦

really? I thought Orca was based off prusa slicer which has extrusion widths for infill

I just noticed that even with z hop on the nozzle bumps into the support material but less Just what could be the main issues here like what would be the obvious reason for this

check if this option is enabled under support. if it is, disable it and try again and see if the issue persist
