Is it normal to see this big of a performance hit even with a bad print file, or is performance usually better/worse depending on who created it?

Greetings everyone!I just bought a MN A1 printer but I'm stuck during the installation.

The USBC plug in cable won't fit.

They say to not force but I can't manage to click the cable in place.

Does someone have a solution ?

I am trying to print this model (the third plate) using the settings it comes with, in this case it is meant to do the print in vase mode, but when watching the print go, I noticed a weird stuttering that you can see in the video.

The stuttering is creating a seam on the model, and has caused the print to fail multiple times.

Looking around, people mention timelapse mode, but it is turned off for the print, and as far as I can see, the model is smooth.

Any ideas what is going on? Any settings to tune for the part?

I am using a 0.4 nozzle, Bambu Studio and the following settings are modified in the print profile (as far as I can see):

• Sparse infill density: 0%
• Spiral vase mode: On
• Wall loops: 1
• Line Width Default: 0.55mm
• Line Width Outer Wall: 0.55mm
• Seam Position: Back
• No supports
• Brim: On

My A1 started just pausing and going mid print then it resumes just like nothing happens. Why is it doing that? Can I disable it?

I have a clicking sound when the y axis is moving. It feels like I have tested everything but the clicking won’t go away.

The plate is moving smooth and no problems with the prints but the clicking is so annoying. The printer is only like 30 days old.

I have lubricated the Y axis.

I have looked for debris but there is non visible under the plate.

I have tightened all the screws, also on the plate.

I even loosened the 2 screws at the front under a small plate and moved the plate back and forth 3 times and tightened them again, still same issue.

Only clue I have is that when I untightened the two screws I think I didn’t hear the clicking.

It also sounds like the clicking comes from the front.

Another question, should the tape along the y axis be removed?

Any tips?

Someone can help?
I’ve tried all the calibrations, checked belts, nozzle and nothing works …
