I don't think this really improves wording, since it makes the sentence read very jaggedly.

How about this?

I agree the sentence still reads poorly. Please see my new proposal which I've added to the line above (line 5), since I don't think we actually need a new paragraph.

Raft Print Speed

This setting determines the overall speed at which the raft is printed. The actual speed to print the raft at may still be different if the speed is specialised for the base, middle or top layers.

Can we keep the word "still" in, to indicate the contrast like the original sentence did?

Printing the raft more slowly than the rest of the print is generally beneficial. Printing slower allows the plastic to anneal more because it stays hot for longer, which reduces the internal stresses within the lines and reduces warping. Because it stays hot for longer, the material can also flow out more, increasing the contact area with the bed which improves adhesion. In general, your raft will be stiffer, stronger, more reliable and stick better.

How about the above?
We could do "may still differ from this setting" if you think that is better.
