 - PLA is easiest to print.
 - Plastics with patterns in it works best - eg. Prusament Galaxy or Fillamentum Extrafill.
 
-# Quality settings
-
-From personal experience, **0.15mm** is a good **layer height**. Going lower than that doesn't show an increase in visual quality and adds a long time to the print.
-
-Printing with a **0.4mm nozzle** is recommended over a 0.6, as larger nozzles leave more visible lines on the flat curves of the keyboard. The difference is very visible.
+# Print settings
+
+## Temperature
+
+Printing at lower temperatures makes the plastic more matte rather than glossy. We recommend 195 to 210C for PLA, depending on your plastic.
+
+## For Prusa printers
+
+If you are using a prusa printer, print in:
+
+- 0.15mm structural profile
+- supports on build plate only
+- support type: grid (important!)
+- nozzle temperature: 200 for MK3, MK3.5, MK4. 210 for MK4S
+
+## For other printers
+
+The following settings were tested on a BambuLabs A1 Mini and worked well.
+They were worked from the `0.16mm High Quality` profile in Bambu Studio.

 - Use glue - paper glue or wood glue diluted with water works well
 - Disable the parts fan for the first layer
 - Make sure your bed is leveled correctly

-Here's what we found works best for me in prusaslicer:
-
-**General settings:**
-- 75% XY separation
-- 0.1-0.25mm Z distance
-- 3-4 layer interface*
-- 100% fan speed (except for 1st layer)
-- 0.2mm interface spacing
-
-*If your printer has good cooling, you may go to 1 or 0 layer interface to save print time
-
-**For Scylla / Charybdis :**
-- tree / organic supports
-
-**For Skeletyl / Charybdis Nano :**
-- 2-3mm rectilinear pattern
