      Hi I’m having problems printing these corners.

          Hard to say from just a single image. What orientation was the model in on the bed? What material?

            The base is where my finger is, so the layer lines go up from there

              So there's an overhang? Might need to add support. Check to see that all movements on the printer and the bed are tight enough. I had an issue on my printer where the screws holding the bed to the carriage were loose. Once in a while the bed would shift during a paid movement and cause a deformation in the print. I tighted the screws and the problem disappeared.

                Overhang is 45 so no support needed, support at ideamaker gave me a gcode for xy and it worked good
