What is causing this? Where is the clog?

I've been having problems with skipping/under extrusion so I decided to swap the nozzle. That worked for a few small prints and then I started having the same exact problem. So I switched to a hardened nozzle and this is what I get when I print the Prusa logo. I tried different temperatures, etc. When I load filament I noticed it was barely extruding but if I push the filament with my hand it extruded fine. So I tightened the tension screws and loading filament worked fine. However, I see it's not extruding properly when printing. I also tried increasing extrusion multiple to 1.2. I'm using 3.0.10 fw. I checked the ptfe tube and it's straight and clean. Any ideas what the problem could be? Is there a clog? Or something else?

Thanks. I did the following which helped:

  • -Cleaned bed
    -lowered z from -480 to -510 microns
    -increased temp from 210 to 230
  • I hope this continues to work.
