Printing issue

So I have had my prusa i3 mk2 for about a month now, I love it. Recently I've run into an issue. The printer was printing just fine all over until I started the last part of my helmet, it started off fine, then when I came home it had been knocked off the bed. So I tried reprinting and all of a sudden the filament wasnt sticking on the left side of the printer all the way. I adjusted the live z but it wasnt fixing the left side. So I recalibrated but it didnt solve my problem, I currently put painters tape down so I can finish the print but there has to be a way to fix this problem so I can print without needing painters table on my printer.

Re: Printing issue

I took the sandpaper and made the bed scratchy. No need for glue, but for the bigger details I'll put the brim 15mm.

Re: Printing issue

Cleaning the PEI sheet with acetone periodically brings it back to new, and increases stickiness.

Also make sure your Live Z is set very well.
