do you have a picture of a failled print? that can be very helpfull.

#188   — Edited

@EricEZ  A failed print usually means that object did not stick to the bed, it will release if it warps. if the bed is not prepared properly, the first layer is made to far from the bed and if the speed is  to fast, and in the case of ABS cooling is to fast.   check your print nozzle to bed spacing the bottom of the print should be as smooth as the glass it is printed on  you should not see individual print lines.  Make sure you print on glass use hairspray, check your nozzle height from bed   one sheet of printing paper. in the slicing program slow down the first 2 layers. do not use a fan, cover the printer so it is warm inside the box or enclosure before printing.   IF all of this fails I suggest you use PET G instead of ABS, PET G is stronger then ABS but is much easier to print you do not  need an enclosure. bed only needs to be 60-65 deg C  hot end temp is the hottest suggested temp listed on the filament roll.  maybe 220c you must use retraction.  as PET G is stringy and you will get lots of strings if you don't, but to much retraction  will result in nozzle clogs.  I use 3mm with my all metal hotend, you may need more retraction if you use a regular hotend.    run a test print  2 test cubes on the build plate.  there should be no strings between the cubes if there is then increase  the retraction 1mm, test again until there are no strings.     I have built two Inmoov robots using PET-G and never have a Print failure or strings.    use weldon 3 to join PET G prints it is a solvent weld and is stronger then the print itself.
