My prints come out very well but I’m noticing on larger prints that one corner of my bed prints tighter than the opposite. What’s causing this?

Printing on an Ender 3 Pro with upgraded metal extruder, beefier bed springs and metal levelers, and upgraded hot end. Not direct drive yet and no auto bed leveling.

    As someone who’s currently upgrading his setup, I’ve had no luck so far with firmware.

    Can you point to some resources? I’m still a novice and I’m sure I’m not the only one. I’ve done some DDG searching and turned up some hot garbage, maybe I’m looking in all the wrong places?

      I had the same issue myself when I added my bltouch to my CR-10v2. Maybe check YouTube videos for GitHub links? I used the 3dprinting Canada video which had a link to a firmware build that worked.

        Appreciate it, I’ll look further into it, a touch sensor is next on the list, be glad to have the knowledge handy when the time comes.

      Sorry, I’m not able to access my PC for a while so I can’t look. All I did was google something like ender 3v2 bl touch firmware and went from there.

        All goods matey, I have yet to do the sensor, I was looking into custom firmwares the other night and found some cool stuff, however my ender refused to accept any updates to it’s standard firmware, so I figured I’d ask here.
