Random Layer Shifting at Different Heights

 

I'm at a bit of a loss here for what to do. Across different prints and at differing heights, I have been having issues with layer shifting. I have checked all of the grub screws to see if there is shifting on the pulley itself, I have checked belt tensions, I have re-tightened all bolts on frame, I have checked for proper lubrication, I have tried different speeds and schematic setups, I have re-calibrated multiple times, I checked all cable connections, I clean the extruder before each print, I even tried turning it off and back on to no avail. If anyone has any other suggestions or could explain to me how to have a decent conversation with my printer to understand why it feels like it should behave this way, would be much appreciated.

RE: Random Layer Shifting at Different Heights

If you're running firmware 3.8.1, try disabling the filament sensor. There's a big that can cause layer shifts. Upgrade to 3.9.
