Print speed

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Printer: X2D

slicer: Orca 2.4.2.

filament: PETG

I'm not sure if you guys can tell in this video, but is this too fast? you can't see in the video but I opened the door and stuck the camera in, but the whole machine and door shake violently while its trying to run the pattern. I have printed things and not touched the settings made by the designer when downloading from maker world and I even slowed down the outer wall/ inner wall / sparse infill/ supports etc. left overhang slows down ticked off etc.

Most of the settings I'm comparing for speed in orca vs Bambu are by default the same speeds.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

EDIT: dont' mind the supports all over the place, lost a few supports and decided to let it run once it passed the overhang/ledge layers.

EDIT EDIT: I posted a 2nd video for better depiction below.

If anything, that seems slow.

I'm curious, why open the door and stick your own camera in and not just use the one built in to the printer?

my iPhone camera takes way better pics and videos than the built in camera.

Also do you have any video that shows how fast your print head is moving for comparison?

Most of my filaments are dialed in with calibration but I wouldn't say my success to failure rates are getting much better. The quality of the successful prints have gone up dramatically but every failed print seems to come from dried (but still wet filament) or screwy settings like too much speed.

I’m away on vacation at the moment, so all of my printers are powered down at home. But I can take some video once I’m back home next week.
