CHOCOSKETCH User Manual
What if the chocolate isn’t printed well?
- If the chocolate of the nozzle part wasn’t melt enough, the chocolate isn’t printed well. It’s better to preheat enough (Utilities > Preheat).
Also it is affected by the surrounding environment. If the external temperature is low, please raise the preheat temperature 1~5℃ higher
than usual.
What if the chocolate printing out irregularly?
- The cause is loose levelling. Reduce the gap between Heat-Bed and Hot-End through making the levelling tight until chocolate
being pressed a little bit.
What if the edges of printed chocolate shape are floating?
- The cause is the low temperature of external environment. The recommended external temperature is from 24~30 degree.
Please raise the external temperature, do not print the chocolate in the low temperature (below 24℃).
※ Appropriate temperature will be changed depend on the season or surrounding environment.
