Hello! I use an Ender 3 printer, and I'm experiencing some issues when I try to print something. I suspect that my slicer settings might be incorrect since I've been using pre-made settings for the UltiMaker Cura slicer. Additionally, I am using PLA filament.

Okay, so I found out why I bought a magnetic pad. I discovered that there were bubbles underneath the glued part that made my pad unstable.
