<p>I have an Ender 5 pro and upgraded from the magnetic bed to the glass version. I print with Prusament PLA on 65 °C bed temp and 220 °C extruder temp. I measured that the glass surface has ~58 °C in the center and ~56 °C on the corners. That should be in the specs of the spool which has a printed recommendation of 50 +- 10 °C for bed and 215 +- 10 °C for extruder temps.</p>
<p>Now I also have a BLTouch and use the TH3D firmware so Z offsets should work correctly and are done with the Z offset wizard present (nozzle touching the bed).</p>
<p>The problem I currently have is that the first layers have &quot;lifts&quot; in them. Also, it seems that the layer itself is not 0.2 mm everywhere. It's close to 0.23 mm on the edges but on the inner there are variances up to 0.36 mm.</p>
<p>Currently, I slice with Cura 4.8.0 on Standard Quality 0.2 mm</p>
<p>How do I get rid of the lifts and irregularity in the layer? Is it a problem with the bed?</p>

If the second image shows the print surface, it looks like blobs on the surface that may be keeping it from being flat.</p>\n<p>The first layer thickness greatly depends on how high the nozzle is above the print surface.  If this distance varies, the first layer thickness will vary.
