More or less since the beginning. I’ve gotten results from my Form 3 that are nominal for the most part. I’ve had an 83% print success over 9 months.

Lately, however, prints with white have been failing at an alarming rate. Here’s an example.

This is characteristic across more than one firmware version, but I feel like it started with what is now the previous resin cartridge.

Is there a precedent for getting a bad batch of resin?
