Filament DryingYes — 50°C for 6h
Dry your filament before printing: 50°C for 6 hours. Moisture causes popping, stringing, and poor layer adhesion.

Notes

Mini+ + TPU: Bowden + TPU is challenging. Print very slowly (10–20 mm/s), disable retraction entirely. Soft TPU (80A) is not practical; 95A Shore is the minimum.
