Bounding Box

I am trying to print the Prusa logo using the PLA filament that came with my original Prusa3d mk3. The nozzle draws the bounding box misshapen or crooked no matter what settings I adjust.  It is impossible to print any object on the sd card.

Are there any suggestions?  I tried lowering the speed, nozzle and bed temperatures and also increasing the nozzle and bed temperatures.

RE: Bounding Box

The "bounding box" is called the SKIRT.

You are having very typical adhesion issues.  Most powder coated sheet users printing PLA have found despite the Prusa recommendation against using soap and water, they have had to thoroughly wash their PC sheets with soap and water to get PLA to stick.

Second most likely cause is your Live-Z adjustment is too high.

RE: Bounding Box

looks like your Live Z is way too high... read up on the live Z adjust procedure. the "life Z adjust" thread is the best advice around
