My Prusa MINI can't print small polygons
My Prusa MINI can't print small polygons. I printed this box, and instead of small hexagons, the printer printed circles. I've tried adjusting the belt tension and slowing down the print speed, but the result is still the same. Does anyone know where the problem might be?
As the filament turns a corner it drags some of the previously laid strand with it rounding the angle. All FDM curves distort slightly to the concave.
Calibrate your hole to a slight star shape and you should be able to acheive the desired result.
Cheerio,

Your printer need to be straight in x,y,z and from picture I can tell you its not. Its paint with this printer...

Yes, that could help, but other FDM printers will print this model even without such adjustments. But thank you for the advice.

I've aligned the printer to nearly perfect position, but the problem still persists. I've even tried lowering the printing temperature or adjusting the Z axis, but still nothing. Thank you for the advice

Does it print round objects correctly?
If yes please do this calibration cube and lets start from it https://www.printables.com/model/69934
