Bad print quality when using supports - MK2S with Slic3r

I've been using my MK2S for a few months and the print quality is great. However, I get strange print quality issues when using supports (in Slic3r). Additionally, the support layers are very inconsistent. See pictures in album below for some examples:

I can't tell if this is an issue with my printer or with Slic3r. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks!

I have same prbolem and i dont use anymore support. Does not matter, quality is poor. This printer can not print arc's from the bottom to up. And bottom-up rings also do not know how to print. Ring come oval.

My solution is to cut the figure 2 or 4 pieces and then i glued together. Using support material is wasted time and plastic.

Try: Contact Z Distance 0.2mm, and increase the XY Separation to 1mm and 3 interface layers.

Re: Bad print quality when using supports - MK2S with Slic3r

speed is default 100%. changing the numbers does not change the quality, i have already tried a lot. this is probably the problem with printer drivers.
