PETG retraction distance
I am just curious if 2.0mm retraction distance is too aggressive for mk2? I am currently running 1.5mm @ 40mm/s retraction. I am still get quite a lot of stringing. I understand PETG will print stringy, and I want to eliminate as much as I can without clogging my hot end. Thanks.

Re: PETG retraction distance
I bought a spool of PETG from Prusa together with my MK2S and it prints quite good - nearly as good the the default silver PLA. No excessive stringing. I am using default settings from Slic3r PE. If I understand it correctly, retraction settings are in the printer settings and don't change with material. Default is 0.8 mm distance with 35 mm/s.
