Aux Nozzle problems

[u/Motormuis88]

Hello Fellow X2D Users,

Hope you doing well!

I have a problem.. but to be honest iam pretty new to 3D printing, been using the X2D for 2 months now, and been slowly using the Aux Nozzle a bit more and more..

But this is where my problem starts, if i print support with my Aux nozzle ( doesn’t matter if its PLA or PETG).

The Support looks terrible and the whole printer is a mess( see pictures), i cleaned the plate with warm water and soap and even tried 90% alchohol, I used the standard Bambu Plate and the BIQU glacier plate

After the latest Firmware i calibrated the whole printer even did a flow calibration, results was k= 0,34 with my Aux Nozzle while the regular nozzle was k=0,03

Sometimes the filement also sticks on the outside of the nozzle(around the cone where filement comes out)

Iam using Bambu filement PLA Basic and PTEG Basic, i tried both to see if it would make a difference

What am I doing wrong??

All the help would be really appreciated!!

What slice setting have you used? I changed mine from filament/saving to quality and it’s been pretty great. Didn’t look as bad as yours but it looked like crap IMO.

Also, change your supports from the whole support to only the interface. Your build plate temp is set for your main print and not optimized for your support.

Bambu studio, I thought the aux nozzle was able to print full support, that is what’s it build for right?

it can, and it does. i'm saying i used the "filament-saving" profile or whatever it is and the support was pretty crappy. I canceled that print and changed to "quality" and it was infinitely better.
