All of a sudden my A1 prints went from perfect to awful. No change on my end as far as I remember. The issue has shown up with multiple filaments and models. I’ve run the calibration for flow and rate with no change to the print quality. I have tried a 0.12 and 0.28 settings.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Great thought, but no luck there. I had taken the head apart before this to clear out some filament, but all screws were tight. It almost seems like the bed is shifting when the head changes location. Maybe something on the bed or gantry is loose.
Do de full printer calibration, bed included,. and tell us if there is any change.
What is your filament type and flow rate setting?
It’s over-extruding
Do you have a spare nozzle on hand to test with ?
I have tried eSun PLA+, PolyTerra PLA+, and Bambu PLA. The flow is set to standard, but it does the check before the print. I have an extra nozzle and will give it a try. Thanks

You can also do a flow rate test or try reduce the flow rate by 2% or 5% However, if everything was working well before, let’s first see how things go with just the nozzle change.

No luck
- Replaced nozzle
- Full recalibration
- Lubed all 3 axis
- Ensured the base is stable
It appears that when it has to reposition the nozzle, the join or elevation changes. Pictures attached
Could you try running this flow test to see if the results are consistent each time?
We want to verify whether the extruder consistently stays on target and produces walls of uniform thickness. To test this, print a primitive basic cube twice using vase mode, ensuring that the outer wall line width is set to 0.40 mm in slicer.
