It sounds like you might be experiencing layer shifting or underextrusion issues causing the bumps on the gear-like design.

Here are some troubleshooting steps:

  1. Check Belt Tension: Ensure that the belts in your printer are properly tensioned. Loose belts can cause the print head to shift during printing.

  2. Check Stepper Motor Current: Make sure that the stepper motor current for the X and Y axis is set correctly. If it's too low, the motor may skip steps, leading to shifting.

  3. Check for Mechanical Issues: Check for any obstructions or mechanical issues that may be causing the print head to snag or hiccup during the print.

  4. Increase Printing Temperature: If the bumps are due to underextrusion, try increasing the printing temperature slightly to improve material flow.

  5. Slow Down Print Speed: Printing too fast can also cause issues. Try reducing the print speed to see if that helps.

If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the manufacturer f...
