Filament Unload - Printhead Heater Stays On

I'm running 4.7.2 Firmware. Why does the printhead heater stay on after doing a filament unload?

Maybe it eventually times out but the only way I've been able to get it to cool is to do a reset or power off.

Just doesn't seem right...

Probably because many people may want to load filament after they unload. Though to be fair that’s what the change filament option does.

The heater should eventually time out, but I think it’s 20-30 minutes.

To turn it off manually, simply go to the Preheat menu, scroll to the bottom and select Cooldown. The hotend (and bed if applicable) will shut off.

Ah, Thanks. I didn’t think to check the preheat menu.
