I just finished a print with black ABS.
I am now printing with white PLA. Black ABS bits are showing up after 3 print attempts. It just wont die. What is the fastest way to clear out an extruder when switching?

Purge it, turn manually the gear or control it via repetier.
I usually purge 20cm of filament.
Yea I think it will need a lot of extrusion.Quote:
