I read that slic3r can cause the banding too. Seems to be very consistent error, suspect it might be the slic3r thats buggy.

Z-axis backlash is the most likely contributor to what you are seeing. It is a real quick and easy print/installation and should be the first thing you try and minimize this behavior. You will need to take a trip to the hardware store to get a nut though if you don't have any laying around.

Thanks for the reply, but is that print issue caused by the z-axis? I was just thinking it, can someone confirm it?

Hi Forum

Im doing a important print atm, recently changed to a glass bed, with slic3r and repitier with solidoodle settings at 0.3.

Most prints are very good, but all prints have this problem.

Every few layers has a larger outline than the rest? You all see it right?

Please help me fix this issue, is suspect it might be z stability issue

Regards
