Topic: Help, printer/filament issues!

Hi, I just recently got my Da Vinci 1.0a printer and when I tried printing something it would turn out fine but when it reaches the top layer where it covers the hollow inside of my print, it prints the filament very thinly and when its done it looks like a wire frame. My printer is using Repetier  0.92 and im using the repetier software too. Is there some sort of setting that I need to enable/fix to make my prints come out good? My settings were 0.2mm and honeycomb inner structure (I forgot the exact name of the setting and I cant check it now because I am at school, but I think you guys get what I mean). Thanks and sorry if I missed anything else, first time on the forums too.

What percentage is your infill set to and what speed is the infill set to?

Printing since 2009 and still love it!
Anycubic 4MAX best $225 ever invested.
Voxelabs Proxima SLA. 6 inch 2k Mono LCD.
Anycubic Predator, massive Delta machine. 450 x 370 print envelope.
