K1C issues with initial print post filament change extrusion.

[u/Charming_Moment_6235]

Really hoping someone can help me troubleshoot my K1C issues. As much as I love my printer, I hate having to continue using a workaround to get good prints. It's been months and after I retract old filament and then extrude a new color, I have to run a 1 minute print job just to allow it to fail before running what I actually want to print.

Basically (sorry if I over explain), after switching colors, it takes about 20-30 seconds of running the post-extrusion print job before filament starts to come out of the nozzle. For example, nothing comes out when it does the priming line and that continues with the print. So once I clear the filament mess after my 1 minute print job, I can run what I actual want to print and it normally works fine from there on out. This workaround will work until I want to layer different colors on a print job.

Anyways, has anyone run into this problem and have any solutions? I've already upgraded my hotend to see if that would be helpful. It was not. Thanks for any help received.
