Hello all,

I think it is the backlash on my pullys. But my printer print no circles.
It is also possible that the timing belts are too loose.
Could it also be the marlin or reptier software?
So yes, how can I change that in the software?

Thank you

The description of the actual effect this has on the print is not suffcient to say. Can you include photos of the print and measurements of the failed printed parts?

Either belts are loose or pulleys are loose on stepper motors, at a guess from your tiny tiny pictures.

I agree with Dust, this looks more like a mechanical problem than software.

Thank you,

It was a mechanical problem.
The belt from the stepper motor was to loose.
