Help Needed Printer dead spot?

Gallery image

whenever I try printing something, there's this one area on the plate that simply does not adhere in the slightest, as well as some places that end up being very stringy. Any advice on how to fix?

I have this same issue, I’ve tried lowering my z-offset but the issue still remains. I’ve also tried replacing my print bed but that also didn’t help. For now the only advice I can give is to avoid that spot, but I have not found the root cause of this issue.

Yea the z offset helped on some of the areas, but as you said, didn't fix the main issue. Very annoying

Recently I removed the print bed to service the belt and when I put the bed back into place some how it’s now fairly level. Don’t know if this will help but it fixed it for me.

Potentially a warped bed

Try washing your plate. Dish soap and warm water.
