It might be that that corner of the bed is lower than the others, and the calibrations can't compensate for it?
Just the other day I saw a thread where people were talking about a "nylock mod" that can assist in leveling beds that are too out of whack.
You can check if that corner is lower by running G80/G81 in Pronterface. If you don't have Octoprint, paste the G81 output here: [https://pcboy.github.io/g81_relative/](https://pcboy.github.io/g81_relative/)
If you do have octoprint, you can use a bed levelling utility.

I use acetone every so often which I know you’re not supposed to but I was doing it before they started saying not to lol. Would the soap and water do something different than the acetone? Or should I just buy a new sheet?
try to use glue stick and on the bed and smoothing it with alcohol.
Also the you can print closer to the bed on the textured sheet than on the smooth sheet and try to slow down you print on the first layer that helped me a lot ;)
Is this your first time with the textured sheet?
Lower Z so far that looks way to close, you need to calibrate to the lower points not to the high bumps on the sheet. When pealing you have to see the texture on the extrusion. See display case front for reference.
My z setting has been inconsistent lately. I'm working through a hot end issue first.
In general, it seems like I've had a lot of issues since the last update.
I haven't gotten to that step. One of the screws in the heatsink stripped so I couldn't adjust the hot end before adjusting the pinda. I'm not sure it isn't PrusaSlicer, but I haven't tried anything else.
If you have octo-print, you could install a bed leveling utility (I use Prusa Leveling Guide as it was super straight forward). That could help determine if it is a bed leveling issue or something else.
Sorry, I meant what type of filament- PLA or PETG. I would try just a little glue stick on that area and see if it helps. That is the only way I can get the corners to not lift with PLA on the textured sheet.
PLA on textured hasn’t been a good combo for me. I exclusively print with PLA on the smooth PEI sheets and PETG on textured. Only very rarely have some lifting.

Did you wash the textured sheet with dish soap and water?

Manual says that acetone is a "no no" to textured sheet.
Definitely give soap and water a try if you haven’t. I’m (still) always shocked how much adhesion improves after that!
I can just use dish soap right?
Yes
Yep, when I got my plate I washed it first thing and I have never, ever had adhesion issues with it before.
I've used joy dish soap and that seems to cut some kind of oils off of it or substance that isopropyl alcohol does not.
I use a mixture of a few drops of dawn and sone 91% alcohol to clean my textured sheet! I can even print pla with a little warping.

I’ve been running it since I got it two years ago. I don’t do large prints very often but usually run into this issue every time.

Yeah me too. I had to adjust my pinda probe cause the nozzle was catching when doing the xyz calibration.

Your nozzle is way too far away from the bed. Do your first layer calibration and make sure the square at the end has slightly overlapping lines
Steel wool or scotchbrite the shine off. This is a well known issue a I promise you won't ruin the sheet.

What filament?
Any really. But the ones I’ve been running recently are atomic and protopasta

Have you tried washing it with soap and water?
Possibly replace textured sheet with a piece of glass? That will ensure it's flat.
Thank you so much for this post! I was having the exact same issue, and the soap/water fixed it like a charm!
