Problem with first layer

Back story: Had a print printing with Prusament Galaxy Black, which on it's last layers made a x-axis jump so the last few layers was offset by around 30 mm. I didn't think more of it.
But I started a new print with a brand new roll of Prusament Signal White, and I got this first layer and I am not really satisfied with it. I am wondering if I have a partial block or something has happened with the calibration after the x-axis crash/jump/offset.

Can anybody help me figure where to go from here?

RE: Problem with first layer

That's not terrible, you'll likely not see it on the finished part especially on that textured sheet.

Some of those spots are from dust or dirt on your print bed.  Make sure to use a lint free microfiber cloth and isopropyl alcohol to clean the sheet before you start the print and make sure there is no debris on it.

That being said raise the nozzle say .02mm.  Press and hold the control knob when it starts printing the first layer and raise the nozzle.  Pay attention to raise and not lower it.

Personally I'd not mess with that and let it go.
