ABS print temperature and settings

A heat-resistant, tough plastic that can be sanded and acetone-smoothed, but warps without a warm, enclosed printer.

Across the 28 ABS lines we track, the median recommended range is 248–258 °C at the nozzle and 90–105 °C on the bed. TEQStone starts lowest (210 °C) and Bambu Lab goes highest (270 °C).
