I would really appreciate it if someone could help me with this. I’m having an issue with my Sovol SV06, which is that I get a lot of stringing. I’m still fairly new to 3D printing, so I have no idea what could cause this and how I could go about fixing this. I already searched for this issue online btw but didn’t really find anything helpful.

The only change I made to this printer is that I hooked up a Raspberry Pi 4 to it and installed Klipper and Octoprint. I’m also using PrusaSlicer with the config from here.

Edit: Forgot to mention I was using PLA for this print

    Ya lowering the speed is a good thing to try. Also, you may have a very slight clog in the nozzle which can lead to weird behavior like stringing and under extrusion

      How could I check if the nozzle is clogged?

        You could swap the nozzle, or do a cold pull. Honestly it would be a little challenging to explain that well over text, especially since I am not familiar with your specific printer (I’ve used and own a lot of them though). The best bet would be to look up on YouTube how to do a cold pull, or swap the nozzle. Some good YouTube channels are Teaching Tech, CNC Kitchen, and Made with Layers. Teaching Tech and made with layers are probably where you will find the best info for a beginner, but CNC Kitchen is 🔥
