Here's where I downloaded it from.

Apparently I cant post links either? Weird forum.

Yes I've been using the xyz software. I didn't know that it had software limitations to what I could print. What sort of software should I use instead?

Post the stl or a source, so we can try with our settings and see what we get.

Are you using stock software?  Try printing at 0.4mm if not already doing so and see if that makes a difference, slowing it down and using less infill could help too.  Also just print one at a time because I can see some oozing residue on all the pieces.

Hope this helps,

I tried changing multiple settings and the only thing that really changes is where the voids form.

They always pop up in different places so I'm not exactly sure what to do about it.
