Lines on the Side of Print

Hi,
I'm trying to get good results with my mankati full scale plus and simplify3d.
But I always got those lines on the side of the print (every 4. layer):

I already tried:
-Different temperatures (nGen filament)
-Coast at End (1-2mm)
-Wipe Nozzle (1-2 mm)
-Force retraction between layers
-different filament

But with no success. The second cube was printed with MankatiUM with default profile, the result was not good but no lines.

Thanks for the help!

Try grouping all your start points towards a specific location (see the Layer tab). That has helped me.

There's other suggestions for this issue here: https://www.simplify3d.com/support/prin ... e-of-print

I will try changing the starting point.

For the troubleshooting guide:
- It cant be inconsistent extrusion because i changed the filament and i had the same problem
- It cant be temperature: because i changed the temperature and the temperature is stable
- It cant be mechanical: because with MankatiUM i don´t have this problem

It looks like the infill pattern 'shines through'. Are you printing a solid infill layer each x layers? That could be responsible for the horizontal lines, if a thin wall is being used, say only one or two shells.

No I don´t print a solid infill each x layers.

I couldn't find a solution but the problem doesn't occur when I use a small layer height (0,1). The Problem was only with 0,2 mm an not with 0,1 or 0,15 mm.
