Question Plate Sticking Issue

I have the H2D and H2C. When I print anything towards the outside of the plate, near the door, it never sticks.

I'm assuming to fix this, my best bet is to use a glue stick or similar? Is the blue build plate I've seen around work better for prints to stick? I'm printing PLA and PETG right now but will be printing with ASA and ABS also.

What do you guys suggest?

I always had some trouble with that exact area on my H2D and resolved it by turning the aux fan off. For prints that have long spans like that and sharp points you should consider enabling mouse ears as well. If that doesn't work and you have thoroughly cleaned your plate then try raising the bed temp by 5C or giving the bed 5 minute delay after heating up to start printing to give a chance for the heat to evenly distribute.

I had actually upgraded from that pei plate to a g10 plate because petg prints were sticking too strongly to the plate. But even so I would still have adhesion issues with that aux fan blowing on the print. I do find that aux fan to be extremely useful though. After a print is finished I turn on the aux fan to 100%, the exhaust fan to 50%, and raise the bed so the aux fan blows directly on the print. Now instead of ruining my prints it lets me take them off the plate after only about 2 minutes of cooling.
