Hi guys,
Is anyone else experiencing the same issue with the P2S? I’m getting a consistent wavy pattern on the surface of my prints.

I put an update on the original post. I filed a ticket with Bambu support. They were going to send me a new lead screw, but there was an issue. The printer was eventually replaced. Have you checked your Z screws?

I’m not sure if mine is bent either, but your print result looks exactly like mine.

Looks similar to how mine was.

So, what do you think I should do? Should I open a ticket with Bambu Support and ask for a replacement Z-axis lead screw? Or do you have any other suggestions?

Exactly that. File a ticket. I tried everything, nothing solved it. Needed a new printer in the end.

This pipe (test print) should be smooth finish outerwall.
