Not sure how to have 4 layers at the top for ironing.

These settings worked amazingly for me on my MK4, having trouble getting them just right on my MK4S though:

Cleaned my nozzle/hot end

Infill switched from 15% > 25%

Disabled Automatic Infill Combination

Increased ironing flow rate from 15% > 30%

Ensured there are always 4+ color layers available for ironing

I am having trouble getting a smooth surface on my print using the settings for ironing.

I will welcome suggested settings.
