Nozzle cleaning failure with PETG

I have just printed temperature towers for 20 different PETG filaments on my Prusa Core One's. Two filaments failed the nozzle cleaning procedure, and I noticed that there was a very very tiny amount of oozing from the nozzles. Look out for this if you get a nozzle cleaning failure message. Fine tune the nozzle temperature down 10 degree's C to overcome this error.

Hope that's useful to you new users.

RE: Nozzle cleaning failure with PETG

Are you talking about the filaments printing temperature?

I have this problem often and it's weird I can sometimes just clean that spot on the build plate with alcohol and it passes. No real understanding of why, there wasn't anything on the plate in that spot to stat with.
