What can I do about internal walls that can't be seen? (lemmy.world)

I have a model I want to print that has multiple layers of internal walls. They are useless and can't be seen in the finished product, like a hollow cylinder inside another hollow cylinder.

I can't seem to figure out how to prevent the slicer from including those useless parts. I've tried with Cura and PrusaSlicer. Is there another tool I should be using for this?

I'm with you. I don't really see the problem here. Sure, the infill will be a little messier than a clean part, but so what? YOu don't see the infill after it's printed.
