Inconsistent first layers on my A1

I’m getting some splotches of what I’d call incorrect z-leveling on other printers, but can’t seem to figure out why (obviously using per-print mesh auto-leveling).

This is with BL PLA Matte (and the appropriate profile in OrcaSlicer).

I’m running the printer full auto leveling now, and will check on the results in the morning. In the meantime, is there anything else I should look out for/try?

Following the full ABL routine, I’m still getting similar issues. It does seem somewhat improved (maybe 3-4% of the bed, vs 8-10% before.

There is a Bed Tramming, maybe give a shot? I had similar issue with the A1 mini, the bed warp curve when heated.

Oh cool. Thanks! Just did the tramming procedure. Printing a test sheet now. I’ll report back. :slight_smile:

That actually improved things quite a bit. I’m still seeing a couple of small areas with minor gaps, but it’s much better.

Thanks!
