I am trying to print 1 foot rectangular bars vertically. While I know that a tall, slender part printed vertically is not best, I know it can do it reasonably well because I've seen it done with this same part before on this same printer.
As you can see from the image, the printer isn't printing the parts well at all. It used to print well but it seems to not want to print right all of a sudden. I have tried the Atomic Method to clean out the nozzle but that didn't seem to work. Even if I print this lying down (which would make it much smaller and I would like to try and avoid that) I doubt it would improve quality since it starts printing like that even at the base plate.

Any help would be appreciated.
