Print quality help requested: Uneven lines on surface.

Hello, I am new to 3D printing and I have been reading about best practices, but currently I have the problem of uneven lines on this part.

Please view the inserted image.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

I am using Prusament PETG Prusa Orange.

My nozzle is set at 250C and the bed at 90C

Print settings: 

Layer Thickness: 0.2

I found the problem.

The U-clamps holding the bearings to the table were loose.

Once I tighten them up, the problem was eliminated and the print was smooth.

As an aside, very few who I'm aware of find the need to use the blue tape on the Prusa sheets.

Have you tried printing without that?
