Please could anyone advise? I’m desperate here! My printer keeps doing this after printing fine for a couple of prints. I have the Ender 3 V3 SE. My previous printer did it after 2 months of printing well. During trying to diagnose the problem, an allen key bolt stripped on the shroud, so I’ve sent it back. This is now a BRAND NEW printer, purchased yesterday, with the brand new filament that came with it. It printed a test cube file, then printed chaos. This morning, it printed a few small objects fine, then this chaos again. Still same filament that came with the printer. Have done everything I can think of, from changing the entire printer, reinstalled Cura, using brand new SD card etc. Spent ages online yesterday with the Creality helpline, with the old printer, levelling the bed and gantry etc (with the glue sticks) and none of that solved the problem. Please could someone help?
This seams like bad retraction and bad plate adhesion.
Is your printer’s nozzle ok?
Is it threader correctly?
Don’t reside on the Z axis settings of the “auto alignment” function of the printer.
It usually needs to be dropped even lower (at least on my printer).
