Robert Cowan | Prusa XL - 0.6mm vs 0.4mm Nozzle Comparison @RobertCowanDIY | Uploaded 10 months ago | Updated 1 hour ago
The Prusa XL comes standard with a 0.6mm nozzle and the print quality isn't what many people expected. Would a 0.4mm nozzle print better? Yes. I compare the same prints with the same filament but use a 0.4mm and 0.6mm nozzle and find out that the 0.4mm nozzle gives me the print quality I was missing! Check below for all the files used.
