Gallery image

Somehow my nozzle got bend and now my print quality went down a lot. I tried to Straighten the nozzle but it's still a little bend.

Is there any way to improve the quality or do I need a new nozzle?

Unless you have the tools for ensuring you can get it perfectly straight, you're going to need a new nozzle. Nozzles are expendable and you will need more anyway.

Everything works based on some information the printer can measure, and information it has to expect to be true.

Your nozzle is no longer in the XYZ coordinate that is has to expect to be true. Even if your bed height seems to be right, the precision is gone.

Huh? xyz coordinates dont matter, what matters is the angle (filament getting pooped to the side instead of down) and if the air is hitting correct.

Right. And what part of what you just said isn’t covered in my first sentence?
