PETG on the SOVOL SV08 issues I had an issue with the Nozzle being far too low using the SOVOL SV08 Ocra Slicer Settings _ **PLA prints GREAT, no issues.** _ So I tried coping the PLA settings as PETG files in Orca Slicers with changes to reducing the speed and increasing the temperatures BUT when I do this Slice then Upload for Printing the file still suggests that it is PLA in the filename If I select PETG files in Orca Slicer it uploads and Prints with the PETG in the filename; but this has the Nozzle fare too low: DAMAGE the Build plate caused ![Copy PLA to PETG Settings](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/sovolforum/original/2X/9/93d1af9150343173aa6379a2f3820cf5e8d47f61.jpeg) **Any help will be appreciated** ---

It seems to be **Orca Slicer** **PLA 3D Prints without any issues** ; Why should PLA be OK but PETG print too low? Farmwear supplied 2.3.2 2024-4-15 but if I ask for PETG, **same file** it prints with the Nozzle scrapping the Texture off the build plate ![Settings PETG my setting](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/sovolforum/original/2X/e/e48657182936a2f68d1ac00e19f77a0ee0e4492b.jpeg) ---

There is a newer firmware and also some updated slicer settings available on [SV08 | Sovol 3D Printer Wiki](https://wiki.sovol3d.com/en/SV08) ---

Unsure where to put any files from the Wiki C:\Users\USERID\AppData\Roaming\OrcaSlicer ??? Sovol and Sovol.json ---

A quick google shows : Default presets are in C:\Users%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\OrcaSlicer\system as .json files User presets are in C:\Users%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\OrcaSlicer\user\ (some number) \ as .json files ---

Thanking you 😊 I think there two lots of JSON files a group under the Sovol directory and others more direct. So which is the correct json files or do I just put the whole Sovol directory in. Cura slicer was about 24 times easier Not just this but everything ---

One example why does ocra slicer suggest there is an import printer setting type files like these, then they want to find the correct directory then copy the correct file there ---

orcaslicer has an import function in the menu, you can add the folder with profiles and the json file via that route ---
