Print advise with PETG

Hi,

We received our printer yesterday and start print some objects. We notice a big difference on print quality between two similar prints.

V2:

 

V1:

 

V1 is on the left and is the one thats look good and the one on the right is V2 and doesn't look too good.

You can check the STL files here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1aaDnUSEzSm7Y4iton-AhyctmemJOszTK

The filament is prusament PETG.

@joantabb

I tried with PLA (left) and it is perfect:

pla version

I'll try with your gcode, which settings did you choose?

 

PS: you are printing at 240 but the preset for PETG prusament is 250.. hmm..

Try slicing from this 3mf which includes my standard PETG settings. Unzip. Open in PrusaSlicer. Click slice now. Export the gcode.

Also - those first gcodes, one is at 0.15 mm layers, the other is 0.2 mm layers; so adhesion and cure are different.

I tried the second design with 0.2mm with the same problem. I'll try the first design and see how it prints.
