Stringing like no tomorrow! Pointers, please?

Simple Jack

Hey everyone. Happy new years!

 

May I get some suggestions on how to reduce my stringing as much as I can, please? This is a benchy scaled to 200%. I sliced it in Prusa Slicer, printed it on my Anycubic Mega i3 S printer, used Overture's Silk PLA, all the while the filament was being withdrawn from a SunLu filament dryer box running at a consistent 55 degrees Celsius with a small desiccant bag inside it. I used the "Generic PLA" profile with some slight modifications. I'll list my modifications to the profile here in the most organized way I can think of.

 

Print Settings

Layer height: 0.1mm

First layer height: 0.1mm

Primeters: 5

Solid layers (top): 5

Solid layers (bottom): 5

Infill density: 20%

Fill pattern: Grid

 

Filament Settings

Nozzle temperature, first layer: 211 degrees Celsius

Nozzle temperature, other layers: 211 degrees Celsius

Bed temperature, first layer: 56 degrees Celsius

Bed temperature, other layers: 56 degrees Celsius

Retraction length: 2mm

Lift Z: 0.04mm

 

Printer Settings

Retraction length: 2mm

Lift Z: 0.04mm

 

Any pointers to help me reduce my stringing will be much appreciated, thank you very much!

Don't know this filament, but I tend to print PLA more at 195-200°C. Probably a bit too hot.
