dj here a video about arflow arround the print.

I think JD is correct and your print head is two far from the print bed,  try to do your leveling of the bed with NO TAPE on the bed then when you are finished put the tape back on the print bed,  this makes the extruder closer by the thickness of the tape,  another thing I would use is to turn on RAFT in your program this will adjust for the uneven bed. by adding a pad of plastic under your print object that you peal off.  leaving the printed object flat on the bottom.

I never use the tape. I’ve never had good experience with tape. Every time I used tape, the part wouldn’t stick and warp.

hi dj

I never use tape years ago I switched to using glass on the print bed and some hairspray.  the printed  parts stick with no warping and release easily when the bed is cool.  I never have to enclose the printer even when using ABS,  my filiament of choice though is PET G. no smell, easy to print, very strong, solvent fused, and can be submerged into boiling water.  won't melt if you leave your robot in your car on a sunny day. try that with PLA.
