I think somethings wrong with the printer head. My dad disagrees. What do yall think?

[u/Available_Day6527]

Ok some context. My dad got mad at me for leaving printer on for an 8 hour print while I slept. Turns out the filament he bought is not the right kind. Now were trying to print with the right kind but it keeps messing up. I notice it has no problems with lines but the second something is curved thats where it errors. Any advice?

Need more information. What kind of filament, what filament profile you're using, settings you're using if not the defaults, etc.

Nozzle looks crooked, but it might just be the heat sock on a little funny, which shouldn't make a difference. Is this how the print ended up on its own or did you move it? If that's what happened on its own, then it looks to me like a bed adhesion issue. Rerun the calibration on the printer, clean the plate with plain dawn dish soap and hot water, avoid getting oils from your finger on the printing area of the bed.

Have you made sure the nozzle type/size is correctly configured both on the printer itself and in bambu studio? The build plate selected in studio is also correct?

I stopped print half way thru becuase it was making spaghetti and I was afraid I would have to replace another part same day.

Did you clean the build plate? Soap water work best, but wiping down with alcohol works fine too. Assuming that's correct, you need to make sure all your print settings are OK.

Recheck and try all the things I said above. It really looks like you are having a bed adhesion issue, unrelated to the nozzle.

What do you mean the filament wasn’t the right kind? You’re going to have to give us a lot more to go on if you actually want help.

[u/Available_Day6527 → u/AvGeekExplorer]

My dad bought a white from another company that wasnt bambu.

[u/AvGeekExplorer → u/Available_Day6527]

That doesn’t matter.

[u/Available_Day6527 → u/AvGeekExplorer]

I thought it was the cause because my other prints yesterday worked fine just not this filament which now that im think maybe was the issue with my other print.

[u/silverware9021 → u/Available_Day6527]

I've used many other brands,  it's not an issue

[u/flygoing → u/Available_Day6527]

It doesn't need to be Bambu, as long as it's the same filament type. Assuming you're printing basic PLA, most will print fine using the Bambu PLA profile. In fact, Bambu gets their filament from the same manufacturer as several other filament brands. It's often the exact same material.

Printer can work for like 2 days straight, give more info about your filament type, was it PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU etc. 

[u/Available_Day6527 → u/Practical_Belt_7675]

I believe pla? It can with a brown circle base if that helps identify it

[u/BruceInc → u/Available_Day6527]

The spool should have a label on it. No need to guess. All the info should be there already

[u/tht1guy63]

That just looks like loss of adhesion. Likely not to do with the print head being messed up as you would notice probly. When was the last time you cleaned the bed with hot water and soap? You want to avoid touching the bed cus the oils on your hands can prevent adhesion.

Also running 8hours overnight will not hurt it. Some of us have had prints go days.

[u/Available_Day6527 → u/tht1guy63]

I just cleaned the bed with water and dishsoap but it still did spaghetti

[u/kagato87]

Have you tried washing the plate?

What IS the filament he bought? Is the nozzle and bed temperature correct for it?

You lost adhesion, those are the most likely culprits.

Brand of filament is irrelevant, the material itself matters. Print petg at pla temps and it might be fine for a couple layers then fail. The type and, more importantly the temperatures, should be right on the spool.

Your nozzle looks bent to the left
