During the print, the wipe tower is used for load, unload filament process without selecting a new filament

Hi,

I'm still in 3.8.1/1.0.6 (prusa slicer 2.2.0)

It's the second time with a multicolor print that my result isn't the one supposed to be. At the beginning all is ok...load, unload, wipe tower, filament change. But after 4 of 5 layers, the problem begins..the head go to the wipe tower, starts the unload process, and without eject and load of a new filament, starts the process of load on the wipe tower and print with the same color. On my picture, you have what I'm supposed to have at 0.8mm and the printer ... everything is red...

Do you have an idea ? I added the gcode file if you want to check if the problem is in the slicer or elsewhere.

Regards.

Are you using OctoPrint? I had the exact same issue and found out that in OctoPrint if you tell it the number of extruders incorrectly, it will cause this problem.

Hi,

No I don't have Octoprint. Then if I use 4 colours, I have to configure for 4 extruders ?
