... which sizes and resolution? - outsides or holes? ... have you some images or screen-shots?

... when the simulation shows a hexagon and it's printed as circle, then it's most common you're printing with slightly overspeed, so the material will span over the edges and 'relax' to a bow ... and/or the resolution is set so coarse, that it simply 'averages' the shape ...

Also, you're belts could be too loose, preventing you from getting sharp corners. I would tighten the belts and slow down the print
