Another Colorptint / M600 question

Hi

I've just tried a Colorprint web script for the first time - uploaded a gcode of a simple model where at 4 mm I want to change the filament / color. I've downloaded a modified gcode from the script page where M600 command was added at a 4 mm height. Printed it and when it was time for M600 - extruder moved to the right front corner, and it was a message on the LCD - press knob to load the filament. But I want actually to UNload old filamet first and I can't .. After pressing the knob it started to load the filament with high intensity and extruder motor was skipping steps (probably due to high pressure inside the nozzle).

Please tell me what am I doing wrong ?

Ok, probably I've missed the unloading step which was right after it started beeping..

Yup. Unload happens automatically.
