Pressure Advance (or Linear Advance in Marlin) is an important part of the tuning process to get the best possible print quality. This is something I have been doing in Klipper for a couple of years and is a fairly simple process. Thanks to new calibration tools it is easier than ever before. In this video I go over the traditional Klipper method as well as my favorite method using Elli's pattern in OrcaSlicer.

THANK YOUUU SOOO F**KING MUCH! Your videos have made my Voron V0.2 come to life 3 months after i built it. I could never seem to tune it correctly as a novice and stopped working on it for a while. I'm 4 or 5 videos in and it's finally alive and kicking!

I've been using PrusaSlicer, but the built in test options in OrcaSlicer are really awesome. I can't wait to try them out, since I have an old Wanhao i3 Plus that requires more tinkering than most printers.

I set my PA higher than what looks best via the pattern method. I was testing Polymaker PLA Pro, and a PA of .02 still gave me a rough looking top surface with the edges being much more ridged than the inner portion. I upped my PA to .04, and that all went away, and I still wasn't experiencing the "gapping" at the sides that would be expected.

Tried pressure advanced before but it was in the firmware level and had so many finicky steps and if I ever want to go back I always needed to reflash my machine and recalibrate everything. I am already using OrcaSlicer for months now and I will be doing this calibration for my machine, it's so much easier having it in software level. Just do the calibration test, choose what's best and set it. Nice informational video!

As a sidenote (2:10), make sure that, under the cooling section and if the setting exist, the minimum layer time is set to like 1 or 2 seconds. I had mine set to 20s and the slicer took it to heart and made it so that I could never exceed 25 mm/s at the fastest. One additional recommendation is to set bottom layers to 1 and uncheck "Alternate Extra Wall" to reduce the filament used and potentially halve the print time. If your cube isn't sticking to the plate, (2:15) then your Z-Offset may need tuning. But, in a pinch, you can use a shorter "First Layer Height" like the usual 0.2mm or 0.1 to mash it into the plate. Having one layer not be 0.3mm isn't going to affect the quality of your results. Granted, I'm using Cura but the first should apply across other slicers and the second might apply.
@42436freak 6 ай бұрын
To add to this, make sure whatever printer you use (i have a X1C) you set your print speed to speed you intend to print at. If you run a PA test at 200mm/s but the model prints at 50mm/s you should run the PA at 50mm/s for best results. So definitely make sure your layer time doesn't affect your print speed too much.
@tasa4904 6 ай бұрын
@@42436freak I hadn't thought about this. I wonder if this is why the corners were blobbing. Basically I ran the test at 100mm/s but I normally print outer perimeters at 33mm/s.

@@tasa4904 I tried printing with 60 mm/s and 150 mm/s (probably closer to 130 mm/s in reality) and optimal height was 18.3 mm for 150 mm/s and 25 mm for 60 mm/s. So quite bit of a difference! No other option were changed. Material was 3DJake ecoPLA, printer Ender 3 S1, temperature 205 C and 0.4 mm nozzle.

Hi, question: when you tweak the PA in Orca, do you still have the PA value active and enabled on config file in klipper ? that's confusing
@radicalreel 7 ай бұрын
@ModBotArmy I have a question regarding PA since I first used it. Maybe you or someone else can answer it. So bambu and orca do the PA calibration and then do the extrusion multiplier calibration. Is the PA independent from the EM? Or if I wanted to do it more precise, would I have to recalibrate PA after EM-calibration. The difference would most likely be very very small... but I'm curious if there is impact at all
@Liberty4Ever 6 ай бұрын
Interesting that your first calibration resulted in a pressure advance of .025 and the second was .020 and the default for my Neptune 4 Pro is .022. I print mostly TPU of different durometers and TPU is very different from the other filament types. I've mostly compensated by printing very slowly, but I really do need to do a proper calibration of pressure advance and retraction, but the OrcaSlicer retraction test crashed my printer.
@maxkool1330 4 ай бұрын
What im doing is the pattern, then from that number i do a line and see if its a bit tighter. The pattern is great but its lacking the next decimal point so maybe you could get that sharper corner with .034 or similar instead of .3 or the gap of .4 Cause the corner on .4 looks even better but the gap opens up....

Can you explain how to use the PA tower in the thumbnail after it's printed? The pattern gives a number to input, but I don't understand how the tower works. For instance, my tower looked best at 34.20mm and Orca's g-code informed Klipper to set my PA from .000 - .0100 with 0.002 steps throughout the process (can see in the console..."pressure_advance: 0.006000 pressure_advance_smooth_time: 0.040000, etc.). Thanks!
@alexey_sychev 7 ай бұрын
PA value can be significantly different for different combinations of speed and acceleration, so it is not enough to just set speed to 100 mm/s as advised. PA must be tested at exact speed AND acceleration for outer walls you going to be printing after
@ModBotArmy 7 ай бұрын
For the cube tower I went off of the official Klipper documentation. For OrcaSlicer it auto sets to your profile acceleration and speeds so it should be much closer or match. I will admit I don’t do a 1:1 between my PA testing settings and what I end up running mostly. Typically I still get really good results but doing what your saying of matching it speed and acceleration wise for the profile you plan on running is a great recommendation and will yield the closest to perfect results.
@alexey_sychev 7 ай бұрын
@@ModBotArmy I think official klipper documentation was written at the times when 100 mm/s was insanely fast, we are already in a bit different reality where even consumer printers capable of printing 300+ mm/s and 10K acceleration easily ;)

what should be tuned first? PA or FLOW? would be intresting to see if it makes any difference if PA tuned first or FLOW tuned first
@ModBotArmy 7 ай бұрын
Ideally I would get flow dialed in first. At the very least calibrate your esteps but yeah too high flow will increase the rounded corners which could slightly skew your PA results.

@ModBotArmy 7 ай бұрын
Yeah that’s right each printer will have a different PA value for the same filament so you would need to tune it per printer. You may want to name your filament to start with your printer name if that’s the case so you can easily sort through them.
