--------Print Settings-----------

*These are the settings I used for my Creality Ender 3 V2 3D Printer with PLA. These settings are not going to work with every printer, or every PLA. Printers have different length bodin tubes, and PLA’s have different melting points. These may not work exactly for you, but should give you a good base to start with if you have a similar size printer. Good luck!
