Hi gr5, Thanks for the advice, i followed your instructions and the print came out much better. However it still has some issues, some of these may just be my misconceptoons. The part still has light splitting although it looks like its just on the surface because it feels quite strong. How can i improve this? Also there is still pieces of material protruding from the part in random places, is this normal? And finally the build plate looks like a mess when its printing with excess of material around it. Is this normal? Am i expecting too much out of this printer to get quality parts? Thanks, Daniel

Hi Everyone, Im new to the world of 3D printing, my company purchased this printer before i joined and now im trying to use it without any training. However im a trained engineer so i should be able to follow your advice. I tried to print a test part and i noticed several issues with the print, can anyone help me correct them? See the photos below and my questions, any other comments are welcome. Lots of random bits of extrude on the base plate, is this normal? Layers arent sticking together on the part, why is this happeneing? There is extrusion sticking out the side of the part, what is causing this? Thanks very much, Daniel
