In this paper, the effects of different 3D printing parameters including laminated angle and annealing temperature, were observed for their effects on tensile testing. In 3D printing, a filament is heated quickly, extruded, and then cooled rapidly. Because plastic is a poor heat conductor, it heats and cools unevenly causing the rapid heating and cooling to create internal stress within the printed part. Therefore, internal stress can be removed using annealing and to increase tensile strength and strain. During air cooling at annealing temperature $140^{\circ}C$, the strain of laminated angle $45^{\circ}$ specimens tended to increase by 46% while the tensile stress tended to increase by 7.4%. During oven cooling at annealing temperature $140^{\circ}C$, the strain of laminated angle $45^{\circ}$ specimens tended to increase by 34% while the tensile stress tended to increase by 22.2%. In this study, we found "3D printing with annealing" eliminates internal stress and increases the strength and stiffness of a printed piece. On the microstructural level, annealing reforms the crystalline structures to even out the areas of high and low stress, which created fewer weak areas. These results are very useful for making 3D printed products with a mechanical strength that is suitable for applications.
