RE: Mk3 print quality issue

You've got some warping on the all-in-one test, most likely due to poor first layer adhesion. That can cause cumulative effects further up in some cases. Notice that the vertical poles with the bulges are directly above the warped corner. Check out Jeff Jordan's "Life Adjust" procedure for easier Live-Z adjustment and also make sure the print surface is clean. A dunk under the kitchen sink with Dawn is recommended. Scrub it with a clean plain paper towel and dry it with another. And above all else, avoid touching the print area!

With the exception of the overhangs, that's not a bad print. What specific problems are troubling you?
