Hello! My PLA is not sticking on only one part of the heated bed. I have calibrated and cleaned the surface with alcohol and cloth and have checked electrical connections, all to no avail.

Try cleaning with dish soap and water. While IPA removes most stuff some stuff comes off better with soap. (Personally I mostly use IPA, but occasionally I’ll use soap followed by IPA just to be extra sure and remove any possible soap residue).

Thanks very much! I have used some rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth. I also didn’t realize that you could customize even more of the print settings in Luban, so I gave that a try and it seemed to have resolved the issue.

Thank you for your help, though!
