Tiny pieces of dust or wood that are difficult to see can cause partial blockages. That's the most likely problem. Best fixed by unscrewing the nozzle (gently! and while at 200C! Consider using oven mitts as you are less likely to damage it) then heating the nozzle with flame to burn anything in there out. Not so hot that you melt the brass.
Alternatively is it possibly you have been increasing layer thickness or speed recently as the volume of filament that can pass through the nozzle is limited so if you switch from layer height .2 to .3 you will hit this limit likely or if you speed up from 100mm/sec to 150mm/sec with .2mm layers you can also hit htis limit.
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
