Printer: elegoo Neptune 4 max
Slicer : cura
Nozzle: 205
Bed: 60
Filament: zyltech

I was hoping somebody could help me. I just received an elegoo Neptune 4 Max.  and so far the only print I was able to get off successfully is the pre-loaded Buddha that comes with the printer. I have not been trying to print anything too extravagant just smaller prints like Flexi rexis , and benchys to test out the machine. The test layer that most 3-D printers produce is coming out fine, but when it goes to actually print the nozzle and the extruded filament gunks up almost immediately.

I have re-leveled the bed, tried printing hotter, tried printing slower, tried printing with different bed adhesion, change models. However, nothing seems to be fixing the issue. I’ve included a video on this post to the best of my ability and I’m hoping somebody is able to help out. 

Just recently I started getting this mesg when powering down

See I thought the same wjth the nozzle distance to the bed but Iv re-leveled, it so many times I’m not sure

look though settings and there should be a factory reset option
