SIngle mode won't load to nozzle

I'm on the latest firmware but I get an issue when printing in single mode that has me confused. When you start a single mode print (sliced on the latest version of slic3r) it asks you which extruder you want and then proceeds to load that filament to the nozzle. Problem is, it doesn't load the filament far enough to reach the extruder gears. The weird part is it works fine when doing multi-material prints. I've done the individual filament calibration and that seemed to work but I still have this issue in single mode.

Anyone run into this issue and found a fix?

I havent, but maybe your MMU sensor is thinking filament has been loaded before it actually has and stops early...like dust or stringy pieces are in there, doesnt make complete sense seeing as a actual MMU print is fine. But all i can think off of the top of my head.

Unless some how the single print profile of your slicer program is corrupted and partly controls the filament load.

Drivers and Apps 2.2.2 fixes this problem for me, some new Gcode I believe.

You will need to cut and paste if you have saved your own version of setup.

Hmm, it seems to be working now. I re-calibrated the individual filament paths again and went a little closer to halfway on the bondtech this time. That seemed to do it for now.

Thanks for the help!
