First print, some layer shifting

Hello 3d printing enthusiasts! I am having a little trouble with my MK3.

I am using Slic3r Prusa edition to slice my models and generate my gcode. Pretty much stock settings PLA.

There are some layer shifts but they are very small, here is what I know about my printer thus far.

-All belts are tight/taught, without any looseness or alignment problems
-All pulleys are freely spinning but not too loose as to wobble
-Nothing is hitting the print while printing
-Seems to shift when the printer "travels" from pillar to pillar of the Benchy
-Pulley on the stepper was put on properly, not loose, no signs of issues there
-Printer passes all self tests
-Table it is printing on is sturdy

Could it be that the travel speed is just too fast?
Am I overlooking something obvious?

Thanks!

Re: First print, some layer shifting

Try tightening your belts, also take care the belts are propperly alligned.

Cheers
