Layer Different Color

Hello everyone,

I'm printing with a Tevo Tarantula (which is bases on prusa i3) and I have some print issue.

I use Sunlu PLA+ for my prints.

I just observe that there are some different colors on the layers of my prints. You can see it in,the picture (some layers are lighter).

It's a little bit tricky to see on the picture, but it is more visible irl.

I also have a Longer LK4 Pro (Alfawise U30) and it haven't this problem.

The temperature fluctuation OK (i've made a pid auto-tune), the print temperature is the same on the two printers, with the same filament, both in an enclosure, same print speed, etc.

The Tevo Tarantula has no stepper driver (i would need to change the motherboard), i wonder if it can be the issue ?

 

I'm asking for your experience to find this tricky problem !

Thanks for all replies.

Adrien 

(sorry for my probably poor English)

I would first find out whether the color changes matched the position of infill layers, if so try increasing the number of perimeters by one or two.

Cheerio,

Hello,

sorry for the delay.

I tried increasing the number of perimeter without sucess.

I really don't understand why it happens

Save your project as a .3mf file, zip it and post it here.  I don't have a Tevo but I might spot more obvious misconfigurations.

Cheerio,

That doesn't include your settings, use File > Save Project  and your configuration will be included.

I've tried again and it include settings.

When i try to open it in cura it ask me if i want to open it as a projects.

It appears that there is a settings in "General" => "Default behavior when opening a project file", are you sure that it is set to always ask or open as project ?

Does anyone here know Cura AND Tevo?

Oops.  I assumed that anyone posting here would be using Prusa Slicer unless stated otherwise.  PS doesn't read Cura settings and neither, I regret, do I.

I printed one of your parts.  Cheap, generic, (rather damp), silver PLA, 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layers, 210 & 60 deg C.  All other settings default, so 2 perimeters.

It doesn't reproduce your issue.

Have you tried with a different filament?

Cheerio,
