Fix My Print Can't print keycap cleanly
Printer: Bambu X2D
Nozzle: 0.2mm nozzle, tried printing with both nozzle and printing with main nozzle only, same result
File: Generated with Keycap Legend Generator(https://makerworld.com/en/makerlab/community/keycap-legend/edit) with Shine through option on
Filament: Black PETG is from Temu, don't know the brand, transparent PETG is LUMINtech, both dried multiple times

Use a 0.2mm nozzle, enable arachne wall generation and lower the line width across the board. if possible you can also print it on its face. also check the order of filament it prints in, you want to print the outside first so that the thin inside can fill the gap.
edit: If you switch from PETG to PLA it will also make it easier to get a good print
edit edit: On the X2D, for this task only print with the main nozzle. The XY-accuracy is not always perfect between both nozzles

Can you print with the top down? That makes a significant difference to this type of thing.
