## 🖨️ Recommended Print Settings

To achieve the look shown in the pictures (smooth matte finish and perfect light transmission), use the following configurations:

### 🔳 Lamp Frame (Matte Black/Dark Material)

*   **Material:** PLA Matte or PETG Matte

*   **Layer Height:** 0.20mm (or 0.16mm for smoother curves)

*   **Infill:** 15% to 20% (Gyroid recommended)

*   **Wall Loops:** 2 or 3(Recommended)

*   **Supports:** No supports needed if printed in the correct orientation.

### ⬜ Lithophane Panel (White/Translucent)

*   **Material:** PLA Basic White (Avoid Matte PLA for the lithophane, as it diffuses light differently and can ruin the contrast).

*   **Layer Height:** 0.12mm (High Detail) or 0.08mm for maximum photographic realism.

*   **Infill:** 100% Infill (Crucial for lithophanes to prevent internal grid shadows).

*   **Wall Loops:** 99 (Forces the slicer to print only solid walls instead of standard infill lines, ensuring a perfect gradient).

*   **Print Speed:** Outer wall speed reduced to [Ex: 50-60 mm/s] for better quality. And when the print starts, slow the print speed to 50% or change to “Silent” as in the images below.

*   **Brim:** Recommended [Ex: Auto Brim / 5mm] to prevent warping on the edges.

*   **Aux Fan Speed:** Recommended [Disable aux fan speed] to prevent warping on the edges.

Use this configuration just for the lithophane, I can’t put a print profile for it, as it is for your photos.
