    For many months, my R1+ was printing great, nice and glossy smooth on the bottom. Just within the past couple days the prints have been like this. I haven't changed anything, I use Hatchbox PLA, Matter intelligent slicer, clean the glass bed with with alcohol, and use Aqua Net for adhesion. Not sure why it all of a sudden started doing this, unless it's just time to do some maintenance and tighten the belts and recalibrate the extruder motor.

    Looks like results I get from rolls of filament with inconsistent diameter. Happens even with Hatchbox, more so lately.

    Google "thomas sanladerer calibrate extruder"

    (yes it looks like it could be under extrusion)
