First time 0.6mm/0.8mm Nozzle user - what do I need to change?
Hi all,
Quick sense check - wanting to start using a 0.6mm nozzle for things.
What do I need to change for this? Is it just screw the nozzle in, adjust the nozzle diameter setting in Prusaslicer and away I go?
Or is there other settings I need to fiddle with?

The basics are nozzle size, extrusion width and layer height. Be sure to re-calibrate your Live-Z after a nozzle swap. I've got more detailed notes on creating PrusaSlicer profiles here. Pay attention to the notes in the green box if profiles start disappearing.

Also make sure you follow the e3d guide on changing a nozzle to get it sealed to the heatbreak properly. If you dont you will have leaky plastic and uneven extrusion as best case.
