I’m printing PLA on the glass side of the build plate. The print is working beautifully. The surface is nice and smooth and glass like. The only problem is that the white printed artwork that’s printed on the plate itself is reflected in the surface of the print. (The only thing that prevents perfection.) Does anyone know if it’s possible to remove those printed lines from the glass? I don’t really see a reason for them outside of aesthetics. I don’t want to damage the surface of the glass since it works so well. I tried scrapping a little in the corner with a razor blade but they seem pretty impervious.

Not that I’m aware of. It’s a bit of an annoyance to me too. Your best choice is to replace the glass surface with an unpainted glass sheet. Boron glass is one option. Another option is mirror glass; it’s about the flattest glass you can get but it tends to be heavy and the Artisan may not have the power to sling the bed fast enough.
