Beating my head against the wall for months with this thing, its my first filament printer. My Creality K1C worked wonderful out of the box but for months now every single time I print my layers shift and it fails. I stopped this print in the middle when I realized it had shifted. I am using Creality slicer and PLA at 220° and 50°

I read that it could be caused by loose belts so ive been progressively tightening them to the point where they are now maxed out (picture #2)

Sometimes I can get it to successfully print at 50% speed but even then its very ugly with a lot of cleanup required. Any time I try to print at its default speed the layer shifting happens.

Does anyone have any ideas before i put this in the garbage?
