Dave,
thanks, I should have mentioned that I have tried printing from USB and from an SD card. so is there a segments per radius I need to change ? something in EEprom? or can slic3r behave differently. I have seen deltas print nice and smooth so I know it can be done, as well as on cartezian machines. I have seen perfect circles done with spiral vase command, but even when I use it the machine still steps and draws a bunch of segments, however small. it is more about it depositing material when it stops between segments.

I found this post processor to convert line segments to arcs; [wiki.linuxcnc.org]
I haven't found a way to use it as a built in post processor in Slic3r on my PC. It doesn't like the network paths.
I have to copy the output file to a folder on my local disc and then run the processor.
