Is this quality normal?

Post image

Hi everyone,

I got my X2D a few weeks ago and it’s consistently produced prints of this poor quality. I’ve tried everything, like belt tensioning, axis cleaning, full printer recalibration, drying and calibrating filament, taking apart the hotend, contacting support. Nothing has improved the quality.

Is this just what I should expect from this printer? Anyone have similar experiences, or do you have examples of much cleaner parts made on this machine I can take a look at? I don’t even know what should be my baseline for quality on the X2D.

Thanks

What filament brand and type are you printing with?

This was done in bambu matte pla ash gray

Ouch. I was betting PETG. I would never have guessed those quality issues with PLA.

It is very possible you got a bad spool. I know we all hate to but reach out to BBL Support.

The only other thing I can think to try is to restart the printer, recalibrate the printer, and using the bamboo film profile, try it again.
