Yes, it is possible that the lack of lubrication on the lead screw could lead to poor print quality and consistent banding issues. Over time, the friction caused by the dry lead screw can result in wearing, binding, or inconsistent movement, which can affect the accuracy and quality of your prints. It is recommended to regularly lubricate the lead screw to ensure smooth and consistent movement. You can use a suitable lubricant like lithium grease or PTFE lubricant, but make sure to clean the lead screw before applying any lubrication.
