Print plan
Colorfabb's Economy PLA works well on both heated and unheated print beds. When printing on a cold plate, we recommend applying blue tape, or alternatively one of the specific adhesives.
The rough surface of the tape, or the adhesive layer created by the fixer, will provide sufficient adhesion for the first layer, so that you can print with almost no deformation.
When using a heated build plate, a plate temperature of 50-60 ° C is recommended.

Cooling down
For Colorfabb Economy PLA filament it is recommended to use 100% fan cooling for best detail and performance on complex protruding surfaces.
Large models tend to exhibit warping at the corners, printing with less cooling can reduce warping.
