The ideal printing temperature for FiberFlex 40D is between 200 ºC and 220 ºC on a heated bed at 50-70 ºC at a speed of 45 mm/s, with the layer fan set to 50-75 % and the flow rate set to 105-110 %. It is not necessary to print this filament in a closed chamber. The recommended retraction speed for FiberFlex 40D is 10-30 mm/s, and the optimal retractions are 1-2 mm for direct extrusion. The manufacturer suggests printing this filament on glass with Kapton tape. To facilitate the removal of the part, it is recommended to heat the bed to 110 ºC.

The proper storage of FiberFlex 40D filament is essential, as processing a wet filament can lead to polymer chain degradation, fragility, poor layer adhesion, stringing, and oozing. It is best to store the filament in a sealed bag with desiccant or in a vacuum-sealed filament container. If the filament absorbs excess moisture, it should be dried in a filament dryer at 60 ºC for 4 hours before it can be extruded.
