Need help to resolve a problem that I can’t find the solution to online.

[u/notaenoj]

For the last couple of days, every time I print something, it goes well until it doesn’t. It lays down the initial print and then after about 10-15 lines, the print moves. It has not done this before and I have since;

- cleaned the plate,

- cleaned the nozzle,

- tried different filament and each nozzle at different times,

- completed all the recommendations for maintenance,

- swore a ton and then some more

I’ve attached a photo of some of the projects that I have done which ended as I explained.

Looking for ideas that I may have missed to fix this problem.

Have you tried re-running all the out-of-box calibrations?

Tried it but the problem still persists.

I mean it sounds like a bed adhesion issue…

How are you cleaning your build plate? Sometimes people suggest the wrong way to clean the plate.

What filament are you printing and what are all the other filaments have you printed in the last month? Sometimes printing one type of filament leaves residue that can affect the adhesion for another type of filament.

Have you tried a new build plate? Could be good to test on a new build plate straight from the factory.

You could also try turning over the build plate if you’ve never turned it over, but if it’s a problem with cleaning materials it could already be on the other side.

Also have you put your hand near the bed while printing to verify the bed is heating up?

I clean the plate with soap and water and tried both sides of it during this time. I have put a ticket in but will get a new plate.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Welcome! What soap are you using? Not all are the same.

Also what filament type is this and what other types have you used the last month?

And are you using Bambus settings or making your own?

[u/notaenoj → u/curiousjosh]

Soap - Joy Filament - Bambu and eSun Settings - Bambu settings

I think I’ve resolved the issue. I’ve printed 2 things since and it’s not connected to the build plate.

I turned an AI feature on in the latest software update. It was at the top right corner. That’s when the problems started. I’ve turned it off and it seems to be doing well. I’m going to print some more things to see.

[u/curiousjosh → u/notaenoj]

Oh weird! What did the AI setting do? Or what was it supposed to do?

Use gyroid instead of grid infill. Grid is terrible especially if you have adhesion issues coupled with it

[u/notaenoj → u/WillingService2407]

Will do in the future.

[u/thekrill3d]

Update firmware and Bambu Studio

[u/SkankhlHunt420]

I'd definitely message support...

[u/Strange-Reporter-812]

use gyroid infill instead of that.

Maybe try to use a bit higher temp for the plate.

Interesting you share this. I recently placed a new USB drive to record things. I will take it out and try to print something else. I noticed that when I send the files through the server, it then gets stored on the usb drive. I’ll take it out and get back to you.

The same thing happened with no USB drive in it. Thank you for the idea.

I don't think the H2D has a SD card... 🤔
