first layer not sticking properly on the heated bed

Hi Everyone,

I have a Prusa mini, recently when I print something I noticed that the first layer doesn't stick corectly to the bed making the head briging plastic that should be attached to the bed. Is there a way to fix that?

Thanks,

Please run a first layer 'Z' calibration and show us the result *on the print sheet*

Cheerio,

Wash you steel sheet with hot water and dish washing liquid, dry it, then clean with 90+% isopropyl before the print. Redo the first layer calibration.

Hi,

 

Thanks, yes I washed the base sheet as you said and it's much better, then re ran the Z calibration layer, all working perfectly now, Thanks!
