Weird nozzle marking when printing cylinder shape
Good day all,
Printer: Prusa Mini+ (stock)
Filament: Prusaments PLA Galaxy Silver 1.75mm
Temp: Extruder = 215 Bed = 60
Printer: Default settings (Live Z adjusted and makes awesome first layer). Firmware 4.3.3
Slicer: PrusaSlicer 2.3.3 (Default settings for everything and choose Prusament PLA)
The issue: When I am printing a cylindric shape in a vertical manner, there is a weird mark on several layers.
Here is when it gets sliced:
Here is the end result:
Any help is more than welcome!
Thank you!

This should be posted under Mini, not XL, maybe the moderators can move it.
What your seeing is the Z-seam. Google it to learn more. On circular objects the slicer can't "hide" it in corners so they're visible. You can adjust how the z seam is positioned in Print settings. I'd try Aligned.
