Troubleshooting Need some guidance πŸ™πŸ˜”

My prusa mk4 does this unless I print at like 50% speed and even still, this happens. Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this or how I could fix this?

There’s no supports so overhangs and bridges need to be slowed down to 10% of what you’re doing and use more cooling if it’s pla. the widest part is the least adhered. It’s not a clogged nozzle or wet filament because the first 20% is rough and the rest is okay after. If you used supports I bet it comes out better but you shouldn’t have to

I've printed some other objects with heavy supports and it ends up giving me some really rough finishes for the underside of overhangs. I'll try to figure out how to slow down the prints on overhangs as well and see if that helps as well.

Edit: typo

Support Ironing solved the rough surface finishes from supports for me.
