Right in the middle of an absolutely massive print this x axis shift occurred. MK4 printer. Printer ran a calibration just prior to print. Once my tears dry up, and I buy some more filament, how do I prevent this from happening again when I retry this?

    If belts are tensioned not too tight and not too loose;

    The next thing to look at is the drive gear on the x motor- if it’s a bit loose, it could slip.

    Another thing is the hotnend mount- if it’s Loose it can wiggle back and forth as it drags on the part.

    Then, finally; if none of those seem off; check the x motor itself for voltage and overheating.
