Trouble Printing Circles (axis problems)

Hello everyone,

First off apologies if I'm breaking any forum rules, its my first time posting on here.

I've had a large amount of issues with my mk2 printer, and I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out the most recent one. The printer always performed well on the default objects like the Castle, Vase, etc. but after about a 2 month break where I was away I began having trouble printing circles (see the images, they will be more informative than I can describe in words).

I've tried adjusting the pulleys/belts, with no success. I'm very lost.

Any help is appreciated greatly.

-Cody

Re: Trouble Printing Circles (axis problems)

Few things come to my mind:

1) To make sure this is not a slicer issue, try one of the pre-sliced prints from sd-card. Same problems?
2) your nozzle seems too far up, try lowering it using live z-adjust some more
3) check your pulleys and belts if something came lose. The grub screw in the pulley should be tightened against the flat side of the motor shaft
