Got an issue with my printer it basically keeps bringing up this issue. I've tried troubleshooting online but I can't really figure out what the fix is. I've unplugged and replugged the motor cables to see if that would solve it after I powered it down and it skill ended up bringing me back to this screen around 2% into the build.

Hard to explain but I'll try the print was seemingly working, about an hour in and suddenly it caught itself from the left back of the print and it pulled off the structure.

Aborted the print but I've no idea why it catched itself. I'll upload the pictures of the four prior successful prints.

This certainly was the largest I've done since resetting it all up.

So it's looking a lot closer I'm think does it need to come down to 2.5 cause the middle one looks perfect but the front ones look maybe a little too wide in the spaces so it could be an auxiliary issue with the front two twisters. It could also be the amount of curves on the front ones compared to the neat squares behind them.

But any thoughts are much appreciated as I feel this is closer than before. The good news is nothing is coming loose. So that's a good change. Plus the model printed before is very structurally neat and tidy, no imperfections in the print.

But because there are much smaller model parts than my prior builds which was a costume for MCM I don't want to read too much into a successful box.

I got it in much much closer to the base so it's now like negative 2.340 or something. And I also changed the thickness on the slicer. It was set to .40 and I bumped it up to .60. perhaps between the prints that had come out rough but successful and the prints which failed I'd changed that setting by accident.

So the print remained affixed to the print plate which is a massive improvement from the prior disasters. But I noticed in this print small breakages in that initial skirt layer. When I looked on Cura at the breakdown the entire bottom should be like a perfect criss cross so just wanted to ask what might have caused these issues as I'm unsure if say I did the full print it cause anything more serious to go wrong.

Cheers.

So this is a brand new extruder as my old one well... It broke and Elegoo sent me a new extruder as I was under warranty. However since setting it up I've not been able to get the printer to work as it did before. I've gone through the whole axillary and automatic bed leveling, and the print is still this super thin and frail. I don't want the same thing to happen to the old extruder to happen to this one so I'm just wondering what's gone wrong between the prints that came out okay and the prints which began failing a little over two weeks ago.

Any suggestions on this would be swell.

My only thought is there's something wrong with the filament or the bed itself preventing adhesion.

So my print was okay, but it was a little thready and unsmooth across the whole print. I just wonder what settings would improve the printing process to make a superior print.

I used Cura as the slicer, and my printer is the Elegoo 4 Max I believe.
