Z-Axis doesn't work only during printing
So you need to either:
Change/upgrade your stepper motors to ons with more torque, or;
Change the rods, for some with a smaller lead. … and
(As Tom points out) An 8 mm lead can result in the weight of the X-axis gantry (especially in a P3Steel) overcoming the idle torque of the stepper. …
