Prime after pause print

Hi all,

I am currently doing some prints where I pause the print with an M601 command, insert some hardware into the print and then continue the print. The problem is that while I am inserting hardware, some plastic oozes out of the nozzle, resulting in a temporal underextrusion when the print continues. This in turn results in bad layer adhesion and visible wall gaps.

Is there a way to make the printer prime immediately before continuing the print in the same way it does after a manual color change? That way the nozzle would be filled and the defect wouldn't occur. I know I can work around it by using the M600 command instead, but that's just annoying as I have to unload filament, then load the same filament again.

*bump*

Having same issue. I'm thinking I need to add a line of gcode after the M601 to extrude some filament then resume... but have no idea how. Anybody else had this / a fix?
