Extruder Calibration - Different lengths with the same settings

Hi guys,

Wondering if someone came across same problem. I am trying to calibrate the steps for a Real petg filament. I am sending the 100mm extrusion command to the printer, but I am getting different extrusion lengths without changing the steps . The extruder doesn't seem to skip or have any issue. I remember I had same issues with other filament. Wondering if someone knows where the issue can be.

Thanks

Re: Extruder Calibration - Different lengths on with the same settings

Are you switching to relative mode (M83) first?

Hi Peter,

Can you explain how to do that ?
Do I need to do it after every 100mm extrude, or just before starting the process ?
All I do is send , for example M92 E175 command and then extrude 100mm, and if is not right I make calculations and send the next M92 E176 , and then extrude 100mm again.

Thanks
