3D print movement on Y axis

Thanks for the help.

I have a problem, I bought the printer assembled about 3 months ago, I printed several pieces and everything had worked well.

In my last impressions, I begin to have a problem, during the printing, approximately in the middle, the layers move and the impression is continued with offset on the Y axis (hot bed), it is variable in each impression. The first layer is always correct and the impression is not separated from the bed.

I do not know if it's a problem with the G-CODE, or with the printer. I did a self-test and calibrated the printer again, but the problem continues.

I have been using prusacontrol software, (I have been using it for 3 months, and I have never given that problem). With PLA Colorfabb material.

I have used it with different configurations, layer thicknesses, print sizes, and in all the same error occurs.
