Hmm, very possible, though I didn't notice it the last time I was moving the print head by hand. I'll let it sit and try again. The room also gets a bit dusty and the printer sits for a while between jobs, so I'll make a point of cleaning the belt and rails before the next print.
Gonna have to upgrade one of these days to something enclosed and lower-maintenance, but I'm cheap with broad-ranging interests. I enjoy tinkering enough that, up to certain limits, working with less expensive "time-sink" hobby gear doesn't bother me if it means I get to try something new.
Or rather, I've convinced myself that I do. :-)
