Notes
MK4 + Prusament PETG: Built-in PrusaSlicer profile is perfectly dialed. 240°C nozzle, 85°C bed, 30% fan. Use textured sheet — PETG bonds permanently to smooth PEI.
Troubleshooting
Stringing: 235°C, increase retraction to 1.0mm. Won't release from bed: Use textured sheet or glue stick on smooth. Wait until bed cools completely.
