Posted · Cura starting layer

Hello everyone,

 

I am fairly new to 3D printing and I own Ender 3. I have been printing for a while, mostly functional parts that do not need to look nice. However, I've also wanted to try out printing a picture frame. I've printed two of these and they both have the same features (read imperfections) meaning that they are most likely caused by "incorrect" slicing. I have already read several topics on this forum and I've already tried to adjust the slicer to my preferences, but the features persist.

 

In the attachment you will find a project file with the frame and a cube (to make 0% infill above certain level). And then the gcode that I obtain. The simplest problem that creates imperfections can be found in layer 138 and 139 - the first one starts in a corner, that is perfectly fine, but then for some reason the next layer starts in the middle and it does not look good afterwards.

 

I have also tried to use the setting start layer position, but without any success. Could you please suggest different settings or other solutions?

 

Thank you very much!

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
