Im guessing you mean the lines on the top surface?
It appears the top surface of the model isnt 100% flat.. which is why it has steps in it..
Would need to fix the model to address that.

Or it's sitting on the bed at a slight angle which is angling the top surface. There is an angle involved somewhere so you are getting "steps" because there are 4 layers where you expecting 1. If you take a close look from the side you will see what is going on.
These are the same model but the one on the left is rotated by 1° so it isn't flush on the bed. The skirt cutting under the left model is the clue that one edge is up.
You're both 100% right. That particular piece is at a slight angle. I am rotating it a different way for the reprint, as I'm too lazy to want to go back and fix that, lol.

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.
