Color Print not working

Color Print has only worked once for me. Have a Mk3.

I just did another print. I entered 3 changes. It got to the first change and I changed the filament.

It printed one layer then went through the change filament process again.

I unloaded and put the same colour filament in and, again, it printed one layer and asked me to change.

Any ideas?

Re: Color Print not working

Are you sure this is a problem with Color Print and not the filament sensor? There have been a lot of problems reported with spurious filament reloads triggered by the optical sensor. Try disabling it and see if that helps.

That seems to have fixed it.

I'm rarely going to be needing the filament sensor so that can stay off until needed.

Many thanks. 😛
