Hey! I noticed big prints have a somewhat imperfect look between layers, is this normal? My printer is a Qidi Q2C that I used for about 1000 hours. No maintenance has ever been done. Should I add some grease? Retention the strings?

Wasn't this caused by difference in layer print time, giving the lower layer more or less time to cool down causing a slightly different finish and therefore perceived colour hue? I think I read about this once.
huh, i think it's possible. I'll look into how to uniformize that.
