Any Ideas?


As you can see I’m having a bit of an issue with layer shifting. I’ve recalibrated Z more times than I care to admit and still the same issue. Noob at all this… Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏽

RE: Any Ideas?

Check your grub screws on the motors / gears and your first later looks a bit too low.

RE: Any Ideas?

* Pulley screws on X motor not properly tightened. One has to be tightened against the flat side of the motor shaft!

* Belt not correctly tightened. Use this tension meter to get it right: https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/46639

* X carriage over-squeezed. Loosen the back plate on the X carriage axis.

* Nozzle hit an obstacle. Some patterns such as grid have lines that cross within one layer. This can lead to little pile-ups at the intersection points, in particular if you have slight overextrusion, which in turn can lead to the nozzle catching at those pile-ups. See https://help.prusa3d.com/en/article/infill-patterns_177130/

* Zip ties on the wire bundle on the back of the extruder not properly positioned, so they or the cables hit the model.
