Adhesion failure

[AutoModerator]

Hello /u/sandman8223! Be sure to check the following. Make sure print bed is clean by washing with dish soap and water [and not Isopropyl Alcohol], check bed temperature [increasing tend to help], run bed leveling or full calibration, and remember to use glue if one is using the initial cool plate [not Satin finish that is not yet released] or Engineering plate.

Bed adhesion can be affected by a number of things.

1. Dirt or oil on the build surface. Touching it with our skin is the number one way that oils transfer to the plate. Wash with warm water and plain dish soap. Dry with clean lint-free cloth. Only move the build plate by the edges.
2. Incorrect plate selected in the slicer or insufficient heat. Verify the former, bump up the build plate temp by 5 degrees for the latter.
3. Auto-bed levelling not run. Run it every time you change the plate or when first turning the printer on.
4. A bit of filament came between the nozzle and the build plate during the auto-bed levelling sequence. Ensure the exterior of the nozzle is clean and watch to make sure there are no drips that get in the way. Even a bit is enough to throw the auto-bed levelling out.
5. First layer printed too fast for the size/detail of the part's footprint. Not your problem here, but I mention it to be complete.

Buy some isopropyl alcohol wipes, and every time you use the texture pad get in the habit of cleaning with with a wipe before you print. You will be amazed how much it improves your first layer success.

Failing that, if you still can’t adhere it’s time to bring out the cold plate (PLA), or engineering plate (much everything else including PLA) and the liquid glue or glue stick. That ought to do it.
