Topic: Too high extrusion rate?

Hey,
i just bought my Solidoodle 2 Pro and already solved my problems with filament not sticking to the bed.
But now, since the prints are getting recognizable, I wondered how i could improve the quality. I printed at .2 mm layer thickness and calibrated the z axis end screw. I attached 2 photos of an iphone case I printed and i think it might be a problem with the extrusion rate or my nozzle could be clogged. I already pushed a long needle down the nozzle and i think the clog isn't there anymore, but I'm not sure. Maybe you guys could help me?

Re: Too high extrusion rate?

Extrusion multiplier needs to be turned down.  It looks like you need to do the basic calibration still...
