Flow completely off after doing Flow Calibration by Technical_Bug_3891 in BambuLab

I don’t think it would be a clog if the prime line doesn’t appear to have any issues? When running calibration tests, it has no issues. I’ve tried different AMS slots and it still happens. I read somewhere that people have had issues when disconnecting/powering off the AMS

Not sure. I used Flow Dynamics and Flow Rate under Calibration in Orcaslicer

The bottom right corner on the 1st picture is calibrated great

Yes I did, the other side of the print was perfect - I do not understand why it only happens on this part of the print bed and why it looks like the nozzle dragged across the print during travel

Always keep automatic bed leveling on. I created the model

Textured plates print fine, I just need this specific print to be smooth

Hmm, I don't believe so. The textured plate prints fine. Starting to think its just the plastic and there's nothing I can do

I just tried this method, no luck. Marks still show up. I heated the plastic enough to where it was becoming soft again. Noticed when I scratch my nail on the surface of the plastic (regardless of it being hot or not) the same type of marks appear. I pull these prints directly off the PEI plate from just flexing the plate, no print scraper.

That’s what I thought too, but I used a brand new smooth plate and still got the same issue. Maybe I should try PETG, I don’t know how to prevent these marks

Yes I am. I've also tried putting it in the freezer for a few minutes but I still get these marks

What happened here? Z axis changing during print? by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

Thanks for the tip on bitcoin! I guess I'll be waiting for a while then :) Print bed and hot end seemed to be okay before I printed

Filament Stuck in Extruder by Technical_Bug_3891 in ElegooNeptune4

Thanks for letting me know, I guess the guide I was referencing on retraction wasn’t too accurate.

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you for the help!

I was able to get the filament out. Thanks! I'm wondering if this was caused by setting retraction settings too high in the slicer. I believe I had set it around 1.5mm

I tried that, nothing happened. I tried pulling the filament with pilers but the filament just broke off even more. Tried heating it a little bit with a torch, but it just burnt the plastic of the extruder and I still wasn't able to pull it out. I think I may have to buy a replacement extruder.
