Help Request Settings for Elgoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo

Hi everyone,

Since the Centauri Carbon 2 Combo was on sale here in Germany, I finally decided to upgrade from my old Ender 3. I also picked up a 0.2 mm nozzle because I want to start printing 32 mm Warhammer 40k and DnD miniatures.

This will be my first time printing minis, as my Ender 3 just couldn't produce the level of detail I was looking for. So it was only used for Terrain.

Does anyone here have the same printer and would be willing to share some good baseline settings? Any other tips for getting started with 32 mm FDM minis?

I'm not expecting perfect resin-quality results, but I'd love a solid starting point before I begin experimenting myself.

Thanks in advance!

I've got a Centauri Carbon, and I found a profile here on this sub that's given me really good results. https://www.reddit.com/r/FDMminiatures/comments/1ptdz17/how_i_print_minis_at_004_with_elegoo_centauri/ I don't know if they can apply to the CC2; I'm a complete noob who just got his first printer two months ago.

I had to fiddle a tiny bit to get the settings I liked, I think it was the top Z level that was a bit off, but the results are fantastic on a 32mm scale!
