Cheap Upgrade for Geeetech I3 Pro B Printer Boosts Printing Performance. I sourced a clone E3D V6 from AliExpress (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3D-Printer-J-head-Hotend-with-Fan-for-1-75-3-0mm-12-v-E3D-v6/32371544116.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.123.MVTJm3). To get the most out of this upgrade, simply contact the seller to send a 0.4mm nozzle and a spool of 1.75mm filament. For an LED light upgrade, I purchased a 60mm LED ring from BangGood (http://www.banggood.com/A-pair-of-60mm-White-15-LED-SMD-Car-Angel-Eyes-HeadLight-Halo-Ring-Lights-p-994533.html). To prepare the LED ring for installation, carefully cut some PCB from the ring. Be cautious not to damage any lines, resistors, or LEDs. Once prepared, simply solder the hotend fan and LED ring wires together and connect them to the extruder fan connector on the GT2560 board. Print Settings: Printer: Geeetech I3 PRO B Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 35% Notes: Print all parts at once, positioning them as close together as possible and using a brim (20 lines) for optimal results. I used Cura 2.1.2 to slice the parts and prepare the code. Post-Printing: First, remove all brim and support from the printed parts. Use a 3mm drill bit to enlarge any holes to exactly 3mm in diameter. Then, insert M3 anti-loosening nuts into the hexagon holes. For attaching the hotend, use M3x30mm screws; for attaching the holder, use one M3x6mm screw and two M3x10mm screws. All necessary screws can be found in the 3D printer kit (which often includes an abundance of spare screws, nuts, and washers). To install the LED ring, apply thin double-sided tape to the back of the ring and secure it with two M3x6 or M3x10 screws to the metal plate.
