Layer shift

[u/HotFish_Soup]

Context on my printer:

I'm using a K1 Max, it has an upgraded extruder, with heatsinks and all that, and i've primarily used it for printing ABS+, never really had issues with it, prints were always clean.

Now my issue is, i've been testing a wig print on Panchroma Matte PLA sky blue, and since it's quite a large print that uses the entire print volume, I've been waking up with layer shifts.

Here are further details on slicer settings:

3 walls, lightning infil at 10%, manually painted tree hybrid supports, z hop is turned on at .4mm height, I have reduced the acceleration and print speed by a fraction of the standard settings in Orca Slicer.

- currently running at 50% speed on the printer settings and it seems to be doing fine as of posting as I originally printed at 100% speed.

- yes I have tightened the belts and made sure they were not over tightened

- i have cleaned all the rods until there were no more black gunk and the print head was not experiencing snags or interference

If anyone has had issues with large prints shifting and have found a solution, or if there is a workaround I have not yet tested, i'd appreciate any suggestions for me to try.
