On my ender 3 I have to turn the knobs on the bottom for leveling.

I just picked up a Bambu Lab P1S and it doesn't.

Fundamentally, what is different that allows the P1S and other printers to get away without it?

I can't even get my Ender 3 level with the screws anymore.

Are they possibly over tightened? The screws can “warp” the bed if you over do it (learned that one the hard way)

I had this problem as well, though I fixed it by using a 3 knob bed rather than a 4 knob one.
