One of our Ultimaker 2+ printers has this problem. We have changed filaments, adjusted the feeder tension at all positions. We have replaced the original tubing with a new one, consisting of the same diameters, and even checked the glass plate with a thermonuclear, and the temperatures are consistent across the glass plate However the problem still persists, and we don't know what to do. It is occurring mainly towards the back of the print, and in the pictures it looks stringy and individual layers with gaps between them. But at the front everything looks fine, all nicely stuck together, with the proper consistency. This is only happening on 1 printer.
Under extrusion? gaps between layers.

Any help and ideas would be much appreciated.
