The max bed temperature of 85°C is below the recommended 100°C for PC. Adhesion may be poor without additional bed adhesion aids.
| Filament Nozzle Requirement | 260-310°C |
| Printer Max Nozzle | 280°C |
| Filament Bed Requirement | 100-120°C |
| Printer Max Bed | 85°C |
Que faire à la place
- Your printer's bed maxes out at 85°C, but PC needs at least 100°C for reliable adhesion.
- Try a compatible filament for your UltiMaker S3 — PLA, PETG, and ABS are good options.
- If you need PC specifically, you'll need a printer with a hotend capable of 260°C+ nozzle and 100°C+ heated bed.
