How to print a Lithophane ?

Hi Guys,

Next project is to try and print a Lithphane on my Mni

Anyone any experience of printing Lithophanes on Prusa's using Prusaslicer ?

I read somewhere that they need to be printed slowly, how and where do i slow down the printing ?

Appreciate any help/expertise

Cheers

S

RE: How to print a Lithophane ?

In Prusa Slicer click Printer Settings tab and then on the right side Advanced. You will see the advanced menu on the left side where you can see the option speed. From there you can tweak your and lower it. Another way is to choose a more detailed profile from the already made. For example Detail Mini has different speeds than Ultradetail.

I have not tried a lithophane myself yet because I am waiting for my Mini but I have saved this for one of my first projects. Try this tutorial.
