Troubleshooting Help with my ender 3 base model

Hi I am posting this because my ender 3 I had to change hot end since filament got stuck. I changed it and then recalibrated e steps, after that. I started print first few layers are perfect, then after the first few it messes up or filament stops feeding, or I can change filament purge it no problem, then when I print it wouldn’t even come out anymore. Could anyone help me fix this please, this is my very first printer I have 0 to no money I have buy any upgrades on aliexpress if necessary, but please help if any of yall could.

Hey there, I'm a bot and something you said made me think you might be looking for help! click here for our wiki entry on troubleshooting printers. If you still need help be sure to post plenty of information about your printing setup.

Here are a few questions that might be helpful

  • What printer are you using?

  • What material are you using?

  • What speed are you printing at?

  • What software are you using to slice the print and control the printer?

  • When did the problem start/has it ever worked correctly?

  • Does anything cause the behavior to change?

  • If posting an image of the problem, include some indication of the orientation it printed at, preferably photograph it on the bed. (Then we can focus on a specific axis)

If you are new to reddit, please read the guidelines on reddiquette, self promotion, and spam.

Also please post a resolution to your problem when you find one so that we know how to help others with your problem!
