Print quality issues

Hi,

I just finished assembling my printer and started by printing two bundled samples: The Prusa logo and batman. The issue I have is that there are gaps in the printing. See the following images:

Logo:
Batman:

There are gaps in the prints above: The P, R, and S have big gaps. The batman print also has a gap around the top center. I'm not sure where to start to figure out what is going on. Any pointer would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Daniel

Sorry, not sure why Google Drive is giving me so much pain sharing images. Are you able to access the following link? https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B6395KnnM3zibTYwQ2w3YlMzQjA

Daniel,

Looks like you need to check the tightness of the belts and also make sure the grub screws are tightened to the flat part of the motor posts.

I had to travel on business for a while but finally got to this. Things are working now quite nicely. Thanks so much for your help Richard!
