How do I fix my XYZprinting da Vinci Jr. 1.0w 3D Printer - when I try to 3D print a part of a mask and it tries to print something that wasn't on the ground the plastic strings just fall down?

To explain this scientifically, this happens due to gravity. Any part you print that doesn't touch the ground/print bed will just fall down because of this. These parts that do not touch the ground are also known as overhangs (due to the fact that they are hanging in the air). So, when we say overhangs we basically mean any part that is not lying on anything; that is hanging in the air. When a 3D printer, such as the Da Vinci Jr., attempts to print these overhangs, the strings of filament used to print this part just gall
If you want to print complex shaped stuff that have these overhangs, then you need to add supports. Supports are basically pieces that are printed below the overhang so that they hold it in order for it not to fall. You can easily remove those supports after the print and you will have the complicated shape you wanted.
To add supports to your designs, you can use several PC softwares. One free downloadable software that you can use for supports is Meshmixer, which you can download by searching Meshmixer download
To see how you add supports using it, you can search up videos on how to add supports on Meshmixer on YouTube. For example, to find a video that might help you if you are planning to use Meshmixer, just search "Adding custom 3dprinting supports in Meshmixer" by Mold3D TV.
Make sure that when you add supports, the supports look satisfying to you.
You can also Google and find other softwares you can use to add supports if Meshmixer doesn't fit you.
