Ordered repair sequence

Step 1

Document the failure and confirm that it matches this guide: Supports either weld to the part or leave a sagging rough underside.

Step 2

Return extreme overrides to a known printer, nozzle, material, and slicer profile so the diagnosis starts from a stable baseline.

Step 3

Check gap too small. Express the gap in layer increments.

Step 4

Check gap too large. Test one small underside.

Step 5

Inspect gap not aligned to layer height. Tune cooling.

Step 6

Rule out material remains too soft. Use interface layers.

Step 7

Change only the single setting or hardware condition supported by the evidence, then run a small test that reproduces the original failure.

Step 8

Compare the test against the target condition, record the successful value, and save it in a printer/material profile before repeating the full print.
