MK3 build plate is shrinking?
Not sure if this post is in the correct place, but here it goes, last two prints recently seem to be "smaller" or offset towards the rear of the printer bed. I sliced the print pretty much near the center. The purge line is easily 1-2" further back along with the main print. I'm attaching a pic to show what I mean. Where within PRUSA slicer can I check what the dimensions are? The file I downloaded was off printables.
This is the file im printing

There are a couple of possible causes but to eliminate some sources of confusion and possibly get an easy fix, first run through:

RE: MK3 build plate is shrinking?
Well, the "tune up" fixed it.. I took the printer out of the enclosure and removed the heat bed, which was a real PIA btw, not the brightest idea to use stand off spacers that don't have a good way to stay put, but I digress. Nothing jumped out at me as far as something being broken or worn out. The bed definitely had trouble going all the way to the rear. So I cleaned the rails and lubricated them. Snugged up bolts .Done deal. Thank you very much for the input.
Hope this helps someone out there with the same issue
