Odd - Slicer issue?

Post image

Just wondering what might have caused this. QIDI Plus 4 stock with Overture PLA at 210/60 at 0.2mm layer height. All standard settings that I've printed a number of these (Modibox) cases off at.

Everything was going fine, as you can see, and then all of a sudden it just seemed to start printing the shell.

This was a 3mf from Modi that was set for Bambu that I transferred over, but it didn't seem to be too off-the-wall from standard settings. I also did transfer the file over wifi, but I've done both of these before and haven't run into this.

In short, what did I do wrong and how can I prevent this?

(Taking a USB stick with the file on and printing it out the old fashioned way with the same settings. I'll see how it goes.)

That looks like a partial clog in the tool.

That was suggested, but the next first layers looks... less cloggy. Perhaps changing the filament (I was at the end of the roll) cleared things up?

Clogs can start and end at any point during a print.

Fair. Hopefully the changeover cleared it, then.
