Each printer is individual and may require more precise selection of parameters for the best print quality.
If the table adhesion is poor, it is recommended to use printing adhesive or include a border.
ABS should definitely be printed at a high hotend temperature (more than 275 degrees) and a well-heated chamber (table 100 degrees).
Airflow should be turned on to print bridges. For general perimeters, it should be such that the layers have time to harden but not cool before laying a new layer.
ABS-6 plastic from HTP (High Tech Plast) has proven itself to be excellent.
For PLA+ 240 and 60 degrees respectively, no camera is required.
It is not recommended to use plastic PLA+ from other companies other than ESUN.
