First Print needs a little help

Hello,
just built my printer and need a little help. All works well but when I did the first print of the prusa logo all the letters look like they have a nozzle mark in them. I calibrated everything to the best of my little knowledge. Im very new to 3d printing. Here is a picture.

Re: First Print needs a little help

is that the supplied gcode on the sdcard?

i would address the underextrusion on the top layer first

Hi Collin,

it's "Printer Settings -> Extruder 1 -> Retraction -> Wipe while retracting" - try to uncheck this and slice it with this setting.

Enabled "Wipe while retracting":

Disabled "Wipe while retracting":
