Change filament function?
Hi!
I'm printing some prices for my wifes bowling after work event tomorrow. Changed color to red, it worked great, but when I was about to change it back to white I loaded the new filament, but when it reached the spot where it was about to continue the print it just stopped...I waited for about 20 seconds before I raised the Z axis and removed my print to restart it, after a while it continued to print, mid air?
I had to choose "filament is not clear" three times when switching from red to white.. are there a timeout when using the change filament function?
Best Regards Patrik

Same problem again! This time I just choose "filament is not clear" one time instead of three times, but it still stopped when it reached the spot where it should continue... Gaaaah!
I wont touch it now...Lets see if it magically starts again 🙁
Re: Change filament function?
YES, it just started again! I did pause/resume the print from octoprint a few times, not sure if that helped

Did you check out the Octoprint Terminal window. I have noticed that the M600 causes issues if you take too long (more than 3 beeps) to change the filament, even with the command in "long Running Commands" and an increased timeout.
