I’m using an Orca profile for the Snapmaker printer but other than that I’m not sure. Kind of just trusting they set that part up correctly.

Yeah it should be, how well did it go last time you printed Pla? There are so many things that can go wrong, just trying to eliminate some. (Drying filament never hurts so long as you actually have a dryer and don’t just stick it in the oven and hope for the best)

PLA worked fine. I just bought and loaded some new PETG btw and it prints pretty well so I think everyone is right that the filament is just really old/wet.
Threw 80 bucks out to get a dryer.

Probably a good idea long term, my region is semi-arid and I still find I need it from time to time
