Why are there tags or flakes on my prints?

If you’re experiencing extra cured material on your prints, this page will explain why this is happening & how to prevent it.

Extra cured material is caused by light scattering.
Light scattering is an effect created when an obstacle is partially blocking the light from reaching it’s destination.
This effect is caused by dirty optics:

  • Dirty basin glass
  • Damaged build tray

Dirty basin

If the basin has smudges or cured resin over it, it will cause light scattering.
Use a torch to enhance visibility of the glass.

Damaged build tray

If the build tray film is damaged it can cause print issues.
It’s important to maintain the build tray for maximum performance.

If the build tray is damaged or stretched out, consider replacing it with a new one to prevent the possibility of misprints.
