Just about all of my prints have these lines at around the same heights, and I can’t figure out why. I tried changing the nozzle, changing the layer height from 0.15 to 0.12, and changing the speed from 60mm to 40mm. All of these seemed to have helped a bit, yet they remain. I was thinking maybe as the prints get to a certain height, the shaking of the bed (Prusa MK2) caused the layers to be slightly offset perhaps. Anyone have any other ideas?

    Thank you, and no worries on the late reply. I’ll check all of this soon. You are right in there being a small gap there. It is normally tight, however I did loosen it a smidge because someone in a video mentioned that might add some forgiveness if one of the screws (or leadscrews as I’m learning) is not true.

    Those screws are/ were dry though. I recently put a small amount of WD-40 onto a paper towel and cleaned them up a bit (maybe not the best choice vs a machine oil or something similar).
