<p>The question appears to be &quot;my bed doesn't stay level. What's wrong?&quot;. So my answer is, &quot;That's normal, nothing's wrong.&quot;</p>

Leveling every time is pretty non-standard, unless your printer is very flimsy. I rarely level the bed, it pretty stays level. I've stopped using G29 on each print. If not staying level, it could indicate that there is mechanically something else wrong. Although Creality is not a top notch printer brand, I doubt leveling each print is really necessary, it could also indicate the user is getting the prints off incorrectly.

What is the question? You seem to have posted an issue, along with a workaround.

# Creality CR 6 SE Z-axis issue

(Asked by: username_0 on 2021-08-24)

My new Creality CR6 SE was doing good but suddenly its Z-Axis (head extruder) randomly sometimes stays above the required configurations and sometimes below.

For example after auto leveling when I adjust the Z-axis with paper under it, it aligns fine at 0.20 mm after print if I start next print at same Z-axis configurations 0.20 mm randomly some time it gets below the past configurations and the extruder is very close to the bed or even badly touching the bed.

But sometime after the next print, it's above the bed that filament stays around and does not stick with the bed.

So the solution is every time I start new printing I have to level Z-axis, after trying it a lot, it is always best set at 0.20 mm.

I have to set the Z-Axis each time I print; how can I avoid this?

Leveling every time is pretty standard.

The question appears to be "my bed doesn't stay level. What's wrong?". So my answer is, "That's normal, nothing's wrong."
