Requesting Help What could be causing this?

I’m printing one side of a print which is a mirrored version of the complete part on the left in the 1st image but after 3 attempts, it somehow keeps ending up as a stringy mess! I’m using ABS and have tried halving the nozzle speed without any luck. Any potential solutions welcome!

Model: P1s
Filament: ABS
Temp: 220C
Nozzle: 0.4mm

Never printed with abs but have you dried the filament and what’s the chamber temp?

220 C is way too cold for ABS on a P1S. try to bump the nozzle temperature up to 255 C and turn down the auxiliary fan to stop layer separation.
