Print Head lifting between 0 and 50 on the x Axis (left to right when looking at printer)
I have a strange one. My Prusa Mini printed fine if I placed an object that was not on the left most column of squares on the Build Plate. Essentially the 0-50 on the x axis or left side of the printer looking at it directly.
When I try to print anything in the 0-50 including when it auto-bed-levels and first layer calibration. The print head will lift quite a bit from the surface of the build plate. Its as if the Probe is detecting the bed at an elevated position. Again, to stress anything from 50+ on that axis prints perfectly with a nearly perfect smooth bottom.
I recently had to replace my thermistor and want to run first layer calibration but as you can guess this issue is preventing me from doing that.
I contacted support and worked through squaring the machine and its solid and squared. I am hoping they can get back to me with some more information, but I also thought I would post here to see if anyone has experienced this.

Thanks for this post
RE:
check if the X-axis rails are parallel to each other and at right angle to the printing plate (keyword printhead torsion ):

As part of the squaring process this was checked.
