On an X1 printer's heatbed: 110°C to 120°C for 10 to 12 hours (less effective than a blast drying oven). Important Note: Higher temperatures within the drying range yield better results, but do not exceed 160°C to avoid damaging the spool. Storage Tips: Storage Condition: To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing.
