Que faire à la place

  • Your printer's bed maxes out at 0°C, but Conductive PLA needs at least 50°C for reliable adhesion.
  • Try a compatible filament for your Markforged FX20 — PLA, PETG, and ABS are good options.
  • If you need Conductive PLA specifically, you'll need a printer with a hotend capable of 200°C+ nozzle.
