Strange problem on layers that corrects itself
I'm pretty new to Prusa printers - and every print I've tried so far does the same thing.
Somewhere along the line, it prints a number of layers that seem to fail, but then it carries on like nothing is wrong.
I have the latest firmware, and a MK2S. Picture if the tree frog that's included on the SD card is attached.
Thanks for your help!
Re: Strange problem on layers that corrects itself
These are all pure guesses lol. But I would double check the following:
Print temp Both nozzle and Bed (I cant tell but it looks like the back legs are curling up)
Flow rate?
Z Height?
To me...and I'm no expert at all, it seems as though it may be printing a tad hot and semi clogging based on the z height?
I really cant tell, the picture is kind of blurry, but I would look into the Z height for sure and double check your temps / cooling. If its a tad low it will slighty backup and cause a clog that will pass maybe? Just something to look into I think.

also check that your filament is coming off the spool without tangling,
sometimes if the filament gets loose on the spool it gets a bit tangled..... and you get under extrusion for a bit, then it either corrects itself and continues, or fails completely...
