Surface Finish Problems!

Hi Guys,

I'm printing in PETG and have been getting banding and depressions on the external faces. Printing at 0.25mm

Any ideas what could be the issue?

Thanks

I have had similar problems. A better printer profile can help a lot.

I use "Pretty-Petg" and it makes my prints almost perfect.

Thanks for the tip, didn't realise these were available! I adjusted the speed settings in the end, copying the 0.15mm quaility profile settings to my 0.25mm custom profile. Definitely has made an improvement.

How to get it to download the .INI file from that URL?  My downloader blocks .INI files
