# ABS-R Filament

Follow this step by step guide for successful printing with ABS-R.

## Material Table

|                     | First Layer | Printing |
| ------------------- | ----------- | -------- |
| Bed Temperature     | 75°C        | 70°C     |
| Nozzle Temperature  | 235°C       | 235°C    |
| Retraction Distance | -           | -        |
| Retraction Speed    | -           | -        |

## Preparation

Follow the [Preparing a Print](/advanced-setup-guides/preparing-the-print.md) guide for more help on slicing a print. Incorporate the material settings above into printing and bed temperature.

## Guide

1. Heat the bed up to ABS-R first layer temperature
2. Once the bed is hot, probe the bed with `G30` and then level the bed with `G29 S0`. Follow the [Bed Leveling & Probing](/advanced-setup-guides/bed-leveling-and-probing.md) guide if you need help.
3. Heat up the nozzle to printing temperature and load filament. Follow the [Loading and Unloading Filament](/advanced-setup-guides/loading-and-unloading-filament.md) guide. It is best to extruder about 10  mm of filament to make sure filament is flowing through correctly. Remember to clear the extruded filament with tweezers before starting the print.
4. Upload the print to the board. For more help follow the [Running a Print](/beginners-setup-guides/running-a-print.md) guide.

## Quality Troubleshooting

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://promega.printm3d.com/your-printer-and-filament-settings/abs-r-filament.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
