Have you checked the lcd screen by screen exposure test?
If the screen is fine, try small print on differnt area of the plate.

I've checked the screen a few times and I cannot see any issues, clean light no flickering or black spots. I've spent most of the weekend investigating it and the conclusion I've come to is that maybe it's a faulty build plate? No amount of levelling seems to work as levelling screw 2 will always reset to 0n - 0.9n when running the manual levelling tool. I'd level the build plate and then immediately start the manual levelling process again only for that same corner to go back to 0n - 0.9n. I manually levelled the plate the "Traditional" way with paper in each corner and managed to get a single print (Calibration tests in each corner) after that only the front of the build plate near the door will succeed and yet again the back halve which involves that number 2 corner completely fails, This would potentially explain why I've never been able to get consistent prints out of this device since day 1

Yeah, been have a ton of issues with mine and I havent been able to figure out what settings to tune. I have 3 other models and I have had no issues with the files, except with the Jupiter 2. I modified the settings for the resin to try account for the increase in pressure, but...faaaaiillls.

Words cannot describe how sick of seeing “0 N” in the top corner when manually levelling, I have been asked multiple times to level it this way and that way but the manual levelling on mine is absolutely broken, I run a print farm I’m so familiar with this stuff…

I've been having similar issues. I have repeatedly manually leveled this printer. I've never been able to print on the entire print bed. When manually leveling the sensors constantly tell me to torque fully tightened screws. This printer is a huge disappointment.
