Retraction config

There is two parameter to configure : (length, speed)

  • too low : Oozing/Stringing
  • **too high ** : Bad quality of towers and printed numbers

Klipper vs Cura setup

  • to enable G10 / G11 look for Firmware retraction in Cura
[firmware_retraction]
retract_length: 1.2
#   The length of filament (in mm) to retract when G10 is activated,
#   and to unretract when G11 is activated (but see
#   unretract_extra_length below). The default is 0 mm.
retract_speed: 60
#   The speed of retraction, in mm/s. The default is 20 mm/s.
unretract_extra_length: 0
#   The length (in mm) of *additional* filament to add when
#   unretracting.
unretract_speed: 10
#   The speed of unretraction, in mm/s. The default is 10 mm/s.
