Prints will not stick to the steel bed
I have tried alcohol, acetone, and glue stick, I went in and set first layer to .1 from the default .2. Nothing is working. Any help appreciated. miles
RE: Prints will not stick to the steel bed
what is your live Z at?
I use just plain soap and water in a sink to clean the bed. dawn woks great.'
but if glue stick isn't working im guessing your live Z is off
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.

I think the last was 1.54. I tried setting the Z on the fly but it did not seem to help.
RE: Prints will not stick to the steel bed
does the Z test work?

Did a first layer adjustment and it seems to be working so far
RE: Prints will not stick to the steel bed
if the first layer is sticking, maybe it does need the soap and water wash. I use a new paper towel each time. and I have to clean it every 5-10 prints.

All is well that ends well. After doing a second first level adjustment the printer is back to being the best ever!
My Prusa i3 MK3s has worked perfectly from the time I built it, but for some reason the latest Flash upgrade left me with heights that were not working. No problem, a little adjustment and we are back to normal.
Thanks to all who helped, it is always appropriated.
