      Looking more closely at your cubes it looks like Simplify3D is alternating your start point. Try aligning it to a single corner.

        From your config.g:

        M566 X1200 Y1200 Z24 E300 ; Set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
        M203 X6000 Y6000 Z900 E1500 ; Set maximum speeds (mm/min)
        M201 X500 Y500 Z100 E10000 ; Set accelerations (mm/s^2)

        From your Marlin config:

        #define DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE { 2500, 2500, 100, 25 }
        #define DEFAULT_MAX_ACCELERATION { 500, 500, 100, 10000 }
        #define DEFAULT_XJERK 20.0
        #define DEFAULT_YJERK 20.0
        #define DEFAULT_ZJERK 0.4
        #define DEFAULT_EJERK 5.0

        So you have the same acceleration and jerk configured in both (allowing for jerk being in mm/min for RRF and in mm/sec for Marlin), however you have substantially higher maximum speeds (feedrate) configured in M203 than you had in Marlin.

          Sorry for not getting back sooner, I'd been working on getting both printers set up next to each other so I can literally print two calibration cubes one after the other.

          I'm going to print both again, with a darker filament which shows the surface quality better, and using the same g-code on both. This will have the layer transitions all pinned in the same place.

          As far as I can tell, the max feedrate in Marlin is in mm/s, and RRF is in mm/min, so wouldn't that make the Marlin ones actually much higher? (150000, 150000, 6000, 1500)? I know the Z movement speed on my CR-10 maxes out at around 1200mm/min before it starts to bind or skip.

            @nexxcat Yes, Marlin typically uses mm/s so your values aren't too crazy really.

            1mm/s = 60mm/min, so 6000mm/min = 100mm/s which is actually kind of low for travel moves.

              Have you solved your problem? I also got a deterioration in print quality and similar layers on Z after leaving Marlin. I have no idea why this happened ..
              These are my prints on Duet
              These are my prints on Marlin

                I'm sorry, it's impossible for me to compare the photos because they are of different faces and taken at different distances. Can you take a photo of a print of the X face from a Duet print, at the same scale as your Marlin print?

                Also please post your Duet config.g file and the Marlin settings you were using.

                  Now I can't publish the same photo, because I remade the plugs for the duet. At the moment I am working on replacing wires and connectors so that both boards can be connected. As soon as I finish, I will publish all the comparisons. (files, photos, etc.)

                    @denis Sorry, yeah. I ended up solving the issue by replacing the extruder entirely. I'm now running a Bondtech BMG extruder and prints are now the same between Marlin and Duet. Not the answer you're looking for, but I had tried everything else prior to this.

                      Thanks for letting us know. What extruder were you using before, and what steps/mm did it use @ x16 microstepping?

                        His config file above shows 95 steps per mm @16X, which would indicate an ungeared extruder.

                          Thanks, Ian. In that case, using higher extruder microstepping would probably have fixed it.

                            @dc42 @deckingman Indeed. It was the stock CR-10S extruder which was ungeared with a 1.8 degree stepper. Really amazed by the quality difference the Bondtech BMG made, on both Marlin and the Duet 😃

                            Keep up the great work!
