Re: test print

This is where the new layers start, you probably need to turn up the retraction amount in slic3r a bit and also turning off randomize start points would make it easier to clean up.

Re: test print

Are you sure you calibrated your extrusion settings correctly?  I went through 3/4 roll of filament before I broke down and calibrated it.  I'd double check those and heat it up a little.
