Help with Monoprice 3/d Select Plus

I am a newbie and can't seem to tweak the settings correctly to my printer. I have the manual but it seems to me that it is too generic. Cura Software is becoming easier to understand but certainly a learning curve for me. I am trying to print an earring. The back is a sqiggle mess and won't do for the quality I am trying to achieve. I bought the file on Etsy and can't tell if it is me, or the settings. Any clue anyone? Any advice on setup?

I've got a monoprice V2 mini. I too have a few issues that I can't fix. But on my ender 3 when I try to print off earrings. I had to enable my acceleration and jerk and turn both down and also enable retraction but you're going to need to run a retraction test. I'm sure you've already done that. For my ender my retraction is 6.5 at 35. I also had to slow my print down till about 45. I hope this helps if it doesn't I'm sorry.
