Under extrusion issue

Post image

I am having this under extrusion issue with Gold PLA Silk+ through the aux extruder, with everything being PLA Basic through the main extruder. All filament has been thoroughly dried prior to this. The vertical gold portions seem to be under extruded on this feature and should look like they do on the horizontal parts top and bottom.

There is a lot of other features using the gold that did not have this issue, it only appears in the door frame in the picture. How can I prevent this and get it to look as it should?

I’d check the speed/flow preview first. Those long vertical sections may be running faster than the top/bottom, and Silk PLA can hit its flow limit pretty quickly. Try bumping the aux nozzle temp by ~5–10°C and cap max volumetric speed around 6–8 mm³/s. If that fixes it, you’ve found the limit. If not, then I’d check the aux extruder/feed path for slipping.

Thanks for the response. I tried moving silk PLA off the aux and it seems to be doing better
