Diagnosing UM2 Problem

Hi all and thanks in advance for any assistance. 

 

My faithful UM2 has been acting up lately and I am trying to figure out if its my Cura settings or something mechanical with the machine. 

 

Attached are two prints.  The blue one is printed on my UM2 using ESUN 3mm PETG.  The black one printed on my BIBO2 using ESUN 1.75mm PETG.  Exact same Cura profile but no matter what tweaks I do to the UM2 profile (lower temp, retraction and combing adjustments,  etc), I can not seem to get it to print clean. The UM2 use to print as clean as the BIBO but now its shit.  UM2 has new .4mm nozzle.

 

Any thoughts? 

 

Thanks

Jeff

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        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.
