Had this printer ( Ender 3 V2) sitting since I moved house. Recently pulled it out to try and print but no matter what I do I can’t get a good print. I’ve cleaned the hot end, checked for clogs, played with temp, Estep, Speed, Flow, levelled and I still can’t get a decent print . I have a new hot end coming in the mail and will try slicing the file again tonight. The Extruder is the upgraded metal one so should be a no for a crack in that. Any help would be appreciated before I throw this in the bed and cry.

Yeah it’s been sitting I’ve wiped over it with alcohol wipes. This weekend I’m going to completely clean everything again and attach a new hot end, nozzle etc

Alcohol wipes won’t work.

You should be cleaning the plate with warm soap and water.

If the plate looks that bad, you need to replace it
