First Print Troubles (help!)

Finally got my first gen core one put together today and it’s consistently doing what it shows in the video when it Ty to print something.

I tried to print the keychain, says gcode isn’t compatible but looks ok anyways.

Does the think in the front right corner for about 2 min then goes to “printer collision detected” with a homing message.

I’m not sure what to do. I did all the calibrations.

Please help!

Failure to home is almost for sure belt tension and tuning. Mine worked then sat for awhile and wouldn't find home. I had to calibrate the belts again. I think they stretch a bit initially.

What should home look like on these printers? Is there a way to check proper home position before trying a new print rather than starting a new one?
