I use the original mount.

Also, what hot end mount are you using?  All the calibration in the world won't help if your hot end is wobbling at all in the mount.

Lowering the bed temp to 70C had an effect on getting a better print, but still not as good as it should be. hmm

Is your extruder calibrated ?

I have a weird problem with my PLA prints. I can't get sharp outlines, it always become rugged. What am I doing wrong? I use BQ blue filament, print it on 200 C, bed heat is 90 C. Is the temperature to high? Or should I modify anything else?
There is one more thing.. When my print head changes direction, it prints too much filament.
Please help.
