Frustrated rant

OK so here’s a Benchy printed on my TAZ6 using Hatchbox ABS. I loaded the Cura, Quickprint ABS, Standard, then switched to Advanced settings and changed just a few things. I’ll post pics of the settings as well so you can see but it should just be the nozzle temp, bed temp, initial layer width, and filament diameter.

Notice Cura printed mine without the lettering on the bottom given the initial layer thickness was left at .425mm. Per our other conversation ‘yes’ yours should have theoretically ended up the same. You’ll see the skirt measured about just on the money.

Interestingly, mine shows the same divots in the side that yours does. I don’t recall seeing those the last time I printed it when dialing in my settings for HIPS (will need to go back to reference pics). Anyway, compare these to how yours turned out.

And, of course anyone else reading this is welcome to comment, contribute, help. I think we’re back to a known good and @Geek2Nurse can benefit from the experience of everyone on this forum, as could I. Thanks.
