I wasn’t aware. I’ll look into this tomorrow. Thanks!
Comment on Trouble keeping a top-heavy TPE part on the bed
beeb@lemm.ee 2 months agoDid you losen the idler tension screws? TPE requires that the tension is very very light otherwise it tends to buckle around the gear before entering the nozzle tube.

You were right: after some trial and error, I backed off both idler tensioning screws 2 full turns and then the print went without a hitch. It looks cleaner too. And I don’t know if it’s related (now sure how it would be, but who knows…) the part didn’t warp. First time I get a complete straight TPU part.
Thanks for the tip!
