This is one of my first prints. I am trying to print a cube. It prints the first couple layers in the square but then it starts going off track. I have a hictop prusa i3. The results are consisently like this. I have had 5 turn out like this. Thanks
What speed are you printing at? Looks like your stepper is missing steps or you have a lose pulley or slipping belt.

I am printing at 60 on slicer. Would i have to check the x axis belt or which axis thanks
Check the belts and pulley on both the x & y axis. Try printing at half that speed and see if anything changes.

Consistent bad results are better than random bad results. Much easier to fix! So you kinda know when the layer skips. As Jesse says, observe the belts and stepper motors in the skip direction and see what happens. If it doesn’t skip when you print half the speed, most likely it’s a belt issue that needs tightening or in some cases replaced. Let us know your progress!
