    Is there any elephants foot compensation enabled? Have you always used the printer in its current state or have you recently done an upgrade? It almost looks like z banding, but I dont think thats what it is.

    I wpuld also check the z axis coupling, and make sure everything is square and tightened up. Check the movement on the first 10 layers with a dry run, and you could also look for any weird layer settings for extrusion.

    thank you for your answer.Printer is in same state as it was. I didnt have these kind of problem when I use PLA. This problem only happens when I use PETG. I didnt use elephants foot settings but when I did it was with the same problem..

    I think I have a similar problem. I placed a straight edge across my plate an there was light under it at the center - A couple of thousandth. When I did the paper strip under the extruder at the center my 1st (2d, 3d) layer came out perfect. Of course the extruder scraped at the corners.
