Missing layer sections


My MK4 is randomly failing to print small sections of surface layers, as shown in this photo. It’s not often, maybe once every 10 prints. The anomaly does not appear in PrusaSlicer. Everything is updated as well. Any ideas what might be causing this?

RE:

Hi Stephen,

I have a similar problem. Sometimes you can see the perimeter of one layer is missing, sometimes, it is as with yours, part of a top infill seems as no extrusion happens.

I'll update my firmware to 6.0.1 and hope it will vanish.

Anybody has further suggestions, how to get rid of this behaviour?

PS: With PETG it seems to happen more often than with PLA, but this is not more than a gut feeling.

Regards,
Daniel

RE: Missing layer sections

This could be closely related to the problem described in this post...
