Extruder on reverse

I reset my Prusa Mini to Factory Settings. Since then when I set the command on the screen to load the filament the extruder runs on reverse trying to unload. If I select Unload, the extruder tries to load the filament. Any idea on how to fix it?

RE: Extruder on reverse

Do you have the Bondtech extruder? There's an option to set the direction of the extruder, which is necessary for the Bondtech. If you don't have the Bondtech, maybe it somehow reversed otherwise. The setting is in the LCD Menu under Settings. Scroll to HW setup and then press the knob for 2 to 3 seconds to get to the "experimental menu". Look for Extruder dir. Also see https://help.prusa3d.com/en/article/experimental-menu-mini-mini_264396/ for more details.

Also, if you have a Bondtech you should set the steps/mm to 415 in that menu.
