Problem: The low area contact of the Prime Tower cause tower unstick.
Solution: The possibility to choose Brim only for the Prime Tower.

I think it would also be useful to have an option for a multi layer brim. Creating an even better base.

Perhaps a raft? Especially for people overstuffing the tower with high flow rates, it could be easy to get a bad first layer.

A raft would probably work too.
I would choose a brim over a raft because a brim is way simpler for the user as it requires far less settings to be set.

Settings for such could look something like this:

Enable Prime Tower Brim [ X ]

  • Brim width [ ]
  • Brim Thickness [ ]
    • Brim Layers [ ]

I also think a brim on supports only will be really useful.
What would be even better is if we were also able to print a solid initial support layer against the buildplate.
