I’ve been tuning to print at a 0.1mm layer height, the ironing turned out like this. The left side of the Z is a little textured and more shiny.

Why did this happen and how could I fix it?

    i don’t know much about 3D printing, but it looks like a bit of fine sand paper and then ironing again could fix it.

      Ironing is a 3d printing term where the heated nozzle is used to smooth the final layer, it’s not about taking an actual iron to your print.

      The print shown is a calibration cube, meant to show you the results of your print settings so you can adjust them to get better prints.

          Exactly, it’s not about fixing this print, but about figuring out what’s going wrong so you know how to make the next one better.
