How do I fix my prints on the x axis?
I'm at loss on what to do. I print the bundled gcodes given and I ran into problems where my prints slants to the right.
First print is the prusa logo, although successful but as you can see it didn't print straight up but leans to the right.
The next one I tried to print the gear....
It's so bad that I have to stop the print,it totally shifts to the right. I tried to tighten the belt but it didn't work. What are the solutions to this?

Hi Joshua and welcome to the forum.
Most likely cause is the belt or pulley. The belt must be really tight and the grub screw on the pulley must be tightened onto the flat of the motor spindle.
Check those out; if you still have a problem, try switching into high-power mode (from the LCD menu - firmware version 2.2.3).

Id bet dimes to dollars that its the grub screws on the pullys like PJR said. I just had to tighten mine up on my oldest printer (ive problem logged about 2500 hours into it) and i had a couple prints do exactly what you've shown, they had indeed loosened up a bit.
