Test print and more experienced advice wanted

I made a little test board last night and ran the print to see how it managed. There is a few errors on it that i literally do not have the experience to diagnose so i am hoping some more experienced folk on here can help.

I can see errors in some of the round parts and general errors on layers i have never seen before so i am keen to get this diagnosed. Before the bearings issues my prints were flawless pretty much.

I have attached some pictures and hope they are detailed enough to help.

And here is the vertical print. It looks perfect except for a line that runs all the way down it?

Re: Test print and more experienced advice wanted

The small pumps on the original and the seam on the cylinder are all the seams where the printer changed layers.

You can move them in Slic3r here: Print Settings -> Layers and Perimeters -> Advanced -> Seam position Set it to random to minimize the visual effect.

If you do external perimeters first you will get worse overhangs, but better surface finish.

Any advices given are offered in good faith. It is your responsibility to ensure that by following my advice you do not suffer or cause injury, damage or loss. If you solve your problem, please post the solution…
