I got called out in my last video about fuzzy skin for having a bad printer, or at least in desperate need of tune up. Serious ghosting issues in my prints.

So in this video I go through several settings and ways of tuning your printer to get rid of ghosting or ringing with a mix of hardware and software tuning.
This includes belt tightening, speed changes, wall order, printer mounting surface, alternating wall directions, flow changes, and trying to dampen the motion system.
Why is no one dampening the motion system of the printers with physical dampers?

This was all done with my very old Lulzbot Kittaz I built in Oct 2014 with very minimal changes. If you have an older printer without a lot of the modern features, this could really be a great option to look into.
