Been printing fine but during cleaning I somehow knocked the build head slightly out of alignment so running through the leveling process again but now I cannot for the life of me get the print head to level evenly and I'm losing my mind! I'm following the instructions to a T over and over and over again but one corner is always tighter than the others. I've even tried pressing on the build plate a bit when tightening the screws but nothing seems to work. This cannot be how it is expected to work, can it?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated; I'm about to throw this thing out the window
Process:
May have figured it out with some testing: the right screw seems to throw everything off. Do I have a defective unit? Tightening the right screw causes the malalignment of the plate which causes a corner to become tighter than the others. If I keep the right screw untightened the bed is evenly leveled but can be shifted which makes printing impossible -.-

Process:
- Loosen all build plate screws
- Place paper on LCD screen
- Press home
- Align build plate so it is centered
- Tighten front screw
- Tighten side screw
- Move up/down until proper paper resistance can be felt.
No matter what I do: one corner is always tighter on the paper than the others.
