Draft Mode Draft mode is a 3D printing setting that prioritizes speed over detail, typically by increasing layer height and print speed while reducing infill density. This mode is ideal for quickly prototyping designs, where functionality or fit is more important than surface quality or fine details. Draft mode significantly reduces print time and material usage, making it a cost-effective option for testing concepts or iterating on designs. However, the resulting prints may have visible layer lines, reduced strength, and less dimensional accuracy. Draft mode is especially useful for engineers, designers, or hobbyists who need rapid feedback on a design before committing to a final, high-quality print. |
