What`s wrong with this print?

As the picture showed above. The layers went to left comparing the first layer (at the bottom). Also, the left side of the print is smooth but the right side is rough. What caused this? Thank you.

I would first check for mechanical issues, loose belts, sticky bearings, etc.

Is this a new printer, or one that has been operating properly and then started showing problems?

The photo on the right looks almost like ringing in two dimensions.

If this is a new printer, you might want to log into the online store and contact Prusa support via chat. They're good at working through issues. I agree with @jsw that it appears to be mechanical.

@jsw

This is a brand new printer and this is my second print.
