How to tune extrusion multiplier
by Daniel Pinvidic

I have a question regarding the Tuning controls for print speed and extrusion multiplier.
There are many articles which address the extrusion multiplier and how to find tune it. These involve making a print and measuring the extrusion width.

What indications would I look for during printing which would indicate that the extrusion multiplier should be tweaked under the Tuning Control slider?

Thanks,

Dan

@Daniel Pinvidic
The Extrusion Multiplier should be used when your printer is otherwise under-extruding. So if you think the layers are a bit sparse, that would be a good time to increase it. Not too difficult to use! :)
