Print a shape as if it were a raft

[SteveInOR]

I purchased my first printer to make some pieces I need for a custom EV battery. One of the pieces I need to make is a cover for the cells that is a shape approximately 200mm x 100mm x 1mm. In the process of learning how to print, I made a piece using a raft and the way the printer made the raft would be perfect for this cover. Is there some way to tell a printer to print a flat thin shape using layers like a raft? The raft appears to start with a bottom layer of thicker zig-zag lines with a line's-width gap between them, then a second layer of thick zig-zag lines with no gap, then a layer of thinner zig-zag lines with no gap. If all I needed was a solid flat piece, I could probably trick the printer into just printing a raft for a shape with no padding, but I also need holes in specific places. All my searching for how to print a layer with gaps only returns ways to fix gaps. Below is a photo of the prototype cover printed normally (top) and the piece I cut from a sheet of 1/16" thick ABS (bottom). It is far easier to print this than cut it out but the current print time is about 3.5 hours and I am hoping to reduce that.

I am using an Ender 3 Max Neo and Creality Print software, though I can use another slicer if that's what it takes. I've looked at Cura and Prusa and haven't found anything obvious yet.

Thanks in advance,
