How old is your bulb? How old is your printer? Did you shake the resin bottle really well before pouring?

Have you checked your video/graphics card settings as per the user manual? Windows updates often will reset the video card to the default settings.

I think your film was too tight. It now looks like the exposure is too high as you are getting excess/over curing in some of the layers. Try a re-print at 2.3-2.4 sec exposure.
