First Benchy print after assembly of MK3S+

Hi all,

this is my first benchy printed straight from the gcode that came on the SD card. 
I am not sure why the layers don’t look uniform. Any ideas on what I can adjust/tune to get better looking layers?

I can get better looking prints out of my mini currently and I imagine the MK3S+ could put out better prints. 

Thanks!

That looks like a combination of slightly damp filament and imperfectly tightened drive belts.

Cheerio,

Make your next print this:

It MUST be printed with Prusament PETG to have the correct deflection.

Cheerio,
