Hello all!
I've been printing on my photon for about 3 months now. After the initial learning curve, I thought I had everything dialed in, but now I'm not so sure. I recently tried switching to Elegoo ABS like Gray after being mostly successful with Anycubic gray. I switched because I've seen rave reviews over Elegoo Gray's level of detail and ABS like's strength, but it's been one failed print after another.
I mostly use the printer for tabletop miniatures, so I'm not printing anything huge. I ran the calibration test, and came up with a shockingly high 16s exposure time. I print in my basement, so I expect exposure times to be a little longer due to it being chilly. I then printed the Ameralabs town which came out ok, if a little overexposed and blurry looking. From then on, things got worse. I put several different miniatures, all supported using prusaslicer auto support and manual additions, on build plate and left it overnight. Waking up the next morning left me scratching my head. Half of the models were completely missing from their supports, and the other half had thin layers of resin where it seemed like a support had failed.
I've tried everything I can think of. I've releveled several times (paper and Reed method, but I get better results with paper) I've changed the FEP, I tried updating my firmware (currently on 4.2.18 I believe, I'm at work currently) and more. The funny thing is, when I went back to a bottle of anycubic transparent I had, almost everything failed in the same way, with only one usable model remaining. Please help, I'm at my wit's end!
