· Bad quality infill and Printing in the air
Hello naiaborio!
The bad infill and printing in the air may be caused by your print speeds for infill and outer/inner wall.
Try reducing the infill speed to 30-50mm/s and outer/inner wall speeds to 15-30mm/s.
When you are describing that the printer starts printing in the air, is it due to a clog or filament in the nozzles way, or does the print slide off the bed? If it is one of those or both, try enabling retraction. then click “retract at layer change”. I will also recommend to enable “Z hop when retracted” and “Z hop only over printed parts”. Try setting z hop height to 0.4mm.
If possible, can you let me know your current print speeds, material, layer height, and your printer model?
Hope this helps, (sorry about the late response)
Good luck!

Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
