Brand new Kobra X - 1st layer issue
Hi,
just got a new Kobra X and set it up last night. I first printed the 15 min Benchy, it was OKish, some layer shifting here and there but nothing crazy for a 15 min Benchy I guess.
Then I went to test their claim about "always perfect 1st layers" and it failed miserably 3 times.
I tried 3 different Filaments: PLA+ gray (not too old), PLA purple (several month old) and PLA Silk brand new, all 3 filaments original AC. I installed them using the RFID feature and ran the 1st layer model installed on the printer.
I didn't change anything, I had it do its calibration after I set it up, I installed the latest firmware and when I started the print I checked om "auto leveling" and "time lapse" (nothing else).
The results did vary a bit but the issue was mostly the same, uneven surface in large areas, mostly towards the back and left side. Not sure what it is, looks like nozzle drag.
Anyone got an Idea what's wrong? I never had that with any other printer. I tried tightening all the screws locking the Z gantry as well as the heated bed, nothing changed. I also unchecked the auto leveling but didn't help either. I also cleaned the plate twice with 99% alcohol and a clean kitchen paper.
Do you guy have any idea what I could try to get that fixed? I know I can go and play around in the slicer and adjust Z offset but that's not what I would expect with a machine marketed as easy, beginner friendly and "intelligent" with perfect results "every single print"... ;-)
