Lines not sticking together on some of the print.

Hi All

Had my printer for about 2 months now, been running perfectly, but all of a sudden it stopped, and i can for the life of me not understand why.

I have done all the calibrations, and the Z axis adjustment - and that all seems to work perfectly. However as you can see on the picture , when i start a print it it seems like the distance from nozzle to bed is not correct in the top part of the print.

So dear esteemed prusa owner any idea what is going wrong here ?

Are you using 7x7 mesh-bed leveling?

Cheerio,

Try 7x7 and let us know if there is improvement.

The 7x7 mesh leveling and then adjust your live Z - your nozzle is too high.

Thx. guys, i think i found some source of some of the problem, the PINDA was somehow to low, i adjusted it according to the manual, and also took your advice on 7x7 bed leveling -  and did the re-calibration routine. Then i could micro adjust Z axis coming to -1.350 as the apparant best result. However i still think its not quite as good as it was initially, and on some prints i see a clear difference between the lower left and upper right corners, so there must be something else wrong somewhere.  

I am now doing a series of testprint, and will see how that works.
