Creality fails to print any Onshape generated STLs

I have a Creality CR M4 that I used to print lots of downloaded STLs. when i have tried to send an STL created in Onshape using Creality Print to print, then files slices but when sent to printer it fails to print. i have tried all the internet search /ai fixes such as send as 3mf, model fix model, check unit miss match and even creating a very simple shape such as a box. the file i am trying to print is https://cad.onshape.com/documents/5b9e191148459123f1937dd8/w/79fe0aaf468e934144961e15/e/d0249ebdc3b899728323e513

I've printed several STL exports from Onshape with my old Ender3pro, no problems .But I'm using Cura for slicing. Not familiar with how Creality Print works.
I checked your model in both Onshape and Bambu Studio (I don't use Creality). It looks good in both, and slices fine in Bambu. IDK what the issue is, but the model seems fine to me.
Your part sliced fine in PrusaSlicer for a Prusa XL as well. What sort of error message does your slicer give you?
If I'm reading post #1 correctly, Robert said the file is slicing fine but when transmitted to the printer it won't print. (Creality Print sends g-code files to the printer via WiFi or LAN cable). So something must be getting corrupted during the transfer to the printer. Can you go old-school and move the g-code file to the printer with an SD card and see if that works?
