detail resolution is amazing on 3d printers these days too!

the arachne wall generator is incredible for resolving fine details in things like text

Arachne settings allow the extruder to adjust its extrusion rate based on the model’s line width. This way, the extrusion rates change according to the model’s requirements, resulting in precise printing of the model’s varying shape.

You can choose this setting if you want to print thin features with more delicacy, and your print needs a smooth transition between wall counts.
