5.2.3 Cura settings
(1) Machine settings
Refer to Fig. 21, click “Machine”--->“Machine settings” to input those suggested
parameters into the corresponding column. Please choose the Serial Port (COM) as
shown in your PC→Device Manager→Port (refer to Fig. 15 ⑥, customers may have a
different COM x other than the example COM3), and set the Baudrate to 250000. Those
two parameters are essential for Cura to connect to the printer.
(Figure 21)
(2) Basic and Advanced options
Suggested “Basic” and “Advanced” setting are shown in Fig. 22. Stay the mouse
upon each box and there will be explanation for it.
Those parameters are suggested for ANYCUBIC Mega 3D printer to print ANYCUBIC PLA
filament. Generally, those settings are also compatible with other brand of PLA, but
customers may need to fine tune the parameters to get the best results, for example,
customers could try different ‘printing temperature’ based on the suggestion from a
particular filament supplier. Especially, in order to get a good adhesion for the first layer,
the ‘Bottom layer speed’ should not be too fast (20mm/s suggested).
