PLA won’t stick!

[Kevreb]

Hey all, got my new Anet A8 together and started printing one of the preloaded files with the small bit of PLA included. Everything seemed to work fine without any adhesion problems. I’ve switched to Dazzle Light PLA and cannot get it to consistently adhere for the life of me. My bed is level. Running the extruded at 210C and the bed at 70C (up from 60C). Printing on the stock bed with painters tape. Any suggestions would be valued!

Your nozzle isn’t close enough to bed you want a little bit of a mush on the first layer (with pla)

In addition to MindofMatt, your hotend only needs to be 190-200 and the bed 50c.

Double check your nozzle height - it should be the thickness of paper away from the bed.

Use hair spray or glue stick also on top of tape

1. check the distance between nozzle and hot bed, the gap should be about the thickness of A4 paper.

2. trial with slow printing speed. For differ color, the flow speed of pla material in nozzle is different. In order to take the best adhesive, you should trial the temperature and speed.

Hoping this could be helpful for you.
