    Do you watch for that little bit of “ooze” every print?

    No (I have an XL with a nozzle wiping mod), but it might make sense to check if the filament/temperature combination produces ooze. Because when I had that Issue I had similar intermittent issues which looked like your image, which I guess is a too high nozzle due to build-up filament on the nozzle during probing, which results in the gaps between the laid down filament, as well as the low bed adhesion.

    I would check for a few prints if oozing is the core issue or not, and depending if I want to keep using that filament (e.g. a gifted 200g roll would not be worth the effort in my personal view), I might try and reduce the nozzle Temperature which the printer sets before tapping the bed.

    I’d need some more details here.

    Stock Nozzle (0.4mm)?
    What Filament are you trying to Print?
    What did “cleaning the build plate” entail?

    Is the nozzle actually clean when the Printer taps the build plate? If not, it may be useful to quickly remove any possible ooze of filament just before the tapping / nozzle cleaning starts.

    Glue Sticks are imho super useful for bad bed adhesion. Depends a little on what the Problem and your usecase is though. I like my cheap filaments and don’t often repeat Prints.
