Solved New to 3d printing, looking for advice.

[Im new to this]

I recently bought an Ender 3 pro and have been experiencing printing issues where each layer drifts more and more to the left of the print bed. I experienced many other issues that I have found answers for but this one seems to be more difficult. The link takes you to the photos of the attempted prints that have had this issue

I don't know much about 3D printers but I'll tag some people who can help you.

You need to tighten your belts

First I would go through all the set screws and belt tensions to make sure one isn't or something slipping somewhere

looking at the brim it looks like your Z offset is too high. I see spaces right from the start

Thanks to you guys who recommended tightening the belts. I tightened them and had my first successful print ever! As for the Z offset I will definitely look into that. Thanks for all the help!

Belt tension
Speed
Acceleration

As long as the first layer is sticking and it looks like it is. This to me seams mechanical/settings issue. So check that the belt is tight and when the stepper is engaged that you cant move the x axis. What are your speed settings?

I am also a newbie to 3D printing & very happy with my Ender 3 Pro.

On the idler pully that tightens the Y belt, make sure the T nuts have engaged the track. The T nuts can be tight but not holding onto anything, ask me how I know.
