Step 1

Confirm physical nozzle size and slicer nozzle profile.

Step 2

Verify filament diameter setting and remove any accidental global flow override.

Step 3

Inspect for hotend leakage or nozzle buildup.

Step 4

Print a controlled flow calibration and adjust in small increments.

Step 5

Tune temperature for the material.

Step 6

Tune pressure advance/linear advance if the printer supports it.

Step 7

Adjust seam placement/wipe only after flow is correct.
