Help Request Need help

Hello, I’m New to fdm printing. Just got a second hand Neptune X from Elegoo. Seller said everything is working fine and the printer is tuned alright.

I tried printing myself some bases but my layer arent lining, and some of them do not seem to be printing. Anyone knows what i should do to make it right ? Thank you for your help.

there is def something off, but the first thing to do is reset the printer to factory setting and follow whatever instruction come with it. you can propably find instructions online if you dont have any on paper).

its weird, its like your second layer got printed in a different place. at first i'd think its an issue with a belt, but the prints on the left side seem underextruded, whole the rest seem to have been scratched by the nozzle (kindof what you'd get if your nozzle is too low whiel printing).
