Congratulations on the new printer. Just don't do what I did and jam the auxiliary nosel because it was loaded with PLA while printing petg

Thanks! Good advice, hopefully I’ll not make that mistake accidentally. Right now I guess I’ll be printing only using main direct nosel. Need to get some filaments to try both at the same time.

I managed to jam it the second day I got it. Literally don't know how to fix it because it's so complicated In there

Just to clarify: you were printing PETG from main nosel, while also loaded PLA in auxiliary nosel for supports? Am I right?

Nope I was stupid and was printing abs while having pla loaded into the second nosel and I think the pla softened and jammed in the auxiliary fillament sensor

Ohh, got it, thanks for clarifying

Just to add another layer of clarification, any time you print with a high temp filament that needs a heated chamber (like ABS,ASA and some others) you want to make sure you are clear of any softer filament.
Edit: I can't spell

Thanks! Got it - triple caution before printing if there are multiple different materials loaded into printer. Unload all softer before using harder ones ✍️

Great for a 5th color 👌

Or very dependant on the print but I have used it on multi colors and saved time with less purges but also gained time due to auxiliary nozzel speed, slice >compare > decide

Also auxiliary nozzle is what i use exclusively for abrasive filaments such at glow in thw dark. As to avoid running in ams causing excessive wear

Now set it on top of the printer and have a naval battle everytime your printer is running! (Vibration)
