This is also the sort of problem I see when I set the extrusion multiplier too low in Slic3r.by Justin Andrews - General
Re: Strange stepping issue - 13 years ago
Could it be your USB messing up the connection? Try using a different computer. From your description it seems all that has changed is your computer, and the weak link there is the USB connection.by Justin Andrews - General

I'd imagine that over a certain size you'd also start having to address warping issues as well. Which might require engineering solutions not commonly seen on repraps (such as heated build chambers)by Justin Andrews - General
