Issues with Prusa Mini (Ironing Pass Skipping & light leakage)
Hey everyone! I’ve been running into a couple of issues with my Prusa Mini and I’m hoping someone can help me out.
First off, when I’m doing the ironing pass (set to iron ‘all top surfaces’ in PrusaSlicer), I’ve noticed that my printer is skipping out some parts. Not sure if this is a settings issue or something else entirely.
Also, I’ve been holding the prints up to the light, and some light is coming through them (almost like they’re a bit translucent). I’ve set up the printer following the Prusa guide, including the sensor height using a card, but I’m still getting this weird result.
Anyone run into anything like this or have any suggestions?
Appreciate the help!

Regarding the "ironing skips some parts", could you share a photo and upload your .3mf file? (You will need to Zip the .3mf, otherwise the forum software will silently drop the attachment.)
Regarding the "translucent prints", what filament are you printing with, and how many solid layers (top + bottom) are there? Does light come through gaps in the layers, or through the plastic material itself? A lot of filament materials and colors are indeed somewhat translucent, so it's important to know what you are printing with.
