Cannot say much about problems with the mini but the squished layers issue I am having with a brand new Workhorse. I’ve been trying to find an answer on this forum for days so its reassuring to hear I am not the only one.
I have re-leveled by bed using the corner shims described here: SOLVED: Taz 6 auto leveling is >0.5mm off (NOW PERFECT TO 0.01mm!)
Even went as far as to re-calibrate z-steps and e-steps. Still having squished layers, only now they occur a bit higher up the print, maybe an inch off the print bed. I hope someone has a fix for this soon. Starting to lose it!
