Maybe someone can answer this for me. Why do Bamboo Labs printers always have that stair step effect on the top-curves (top of the benchy)? The prints always look so good but my 10 year old Maker Select does better in that one spot.
I would assume mostly from trying to speed up print time.
The benchy is a 16 minute print and it lets the quality be good enough for that. If you are slicing the files yourself it can be a lot better especially if you are setting slightly lower layer heights and slower speeds.
Not all prints have it.
But every single one I've seen in person does, not just the benchys. Maybe it's something to do with default settings?
Yeah, I know people swear by print speed in some circles especially if they are printing stuff to sell and want to speed up print time as well and that's a core selling point of Bambu Labs printers.
The default fast speed settings in the slicers to most people will be all they do. And it's got a large user base.
