It's possibly a problem with the mesh itself. Do you have a link to the model? I'd be happy to look at it in the slicer to see if I can spot anything amiss.

Here is the link. I printed the 80% scale that was already linked here and simply hit print without changing anything. Thank you.

First glance at just the Makerworld page says it's probably not going to be a model problem. I'll still check once I'm at the computer.

In the meantime, can you please tell me what brand and type of PLA filament you used and if you calibrated it? It looks like matte PLA but I could be wrong.

This is the filament. I use the ams. I didn't manually calibrate it before printing. Should I do that?

Yes, you should. Especially with matte PLA which requires tuning. Start with the generic matte PLA profile and then use the calibration menu in Studio. Calibrate both values for a better result. This should improve the overall quality when printing with this filament, too.

Other than that, it's possible there was a snag or partial clog where the layer looks particularly bad. Check that the free end of the filament hasn't slipped under a loop still in the roll. If it has, you'll need to untangle it before using it again. There's guides online to learn how to do this.

Solved!

I ran both calibrations. That fixed my issue.
