Print with low quality - floating elements and unclean surface
Hi
Is there anyone know how to fix this problem? When I print, my printer - MK3S will print object with floating elements. And after print, the surface will be unclean, which contains a lot of bumps.
Attached are the pics show how they look like.
Thanks!

The fine stringing can often be reduced by finding optimum printing temperature. Look up "temperature tower" on Thingiverse.

Slice and print it using the instructions on that page. Pay particular attention to stringing at the cone. Find the best temperature for your filament.
Not all stringing can be eliminated by temperature adjustment. You will often have some, especially with materials that like to string, e.g., PETG.
You can make fine stringing vanish with a few hot air passes. I use a hot air rework station to get tighter temperature and focused effect, but a regular heat gun can work if you are quick and hold it far enough away from your print object.

The rework station's small air nozzles and precise temperature control achieve super controllable results. The soldering iron is also great for cutting and welding plastic parts. Comes in handy if something cracks and needs a quick, temp fix. Also, a little blob of molten plastic locks in pesky square nuts that would otherwise tend to fall out of their pockets.
