Fast answer
Level or tram your bed whenever first-layer quality changes, after nozzle changes, after moving the printer, or after major maintenance.
Look at the first failed area, the material, and the slicer profile before changing settings.
Check filament dryness, nozzle temperature, bed setup, belts, and the profile baseline.
Use a small calibration print so you can see which change actually improves the result.
