Problems to print with Semiflex (Ninjaflex) - HELP!

Hello everyone!

I have problems to print items with semi flex. Usually it stopped printing when the item is already 80 or 90 percent done and only once, it worked completely.
Attachment 8026 (the only successful print so far)

I have a Mendel Max 3 printer,

have that material: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TBQMN86/ref=biss_dp_t_asn - Ninjaflex 3DSF001175 SemiFlex 3D Printing Filament, 0.50 kg Spool, 1.75 mm Diameter, Snow

and used that setting

Maybe someone has more knowledge about dealing with that kind of material. I really need help about that, any advice could be helpful in order to get finally successful prints, always and not only sometimes. Like I said in the beginning, after a while it just stops printing, no materials comes anymore. Maybe I have to change sth. about the speed?

Best

Levor!

What was the Actual nozzle Temp ?
I've read that 220 C is best for Ninjaflex,
but I've not tried it yet .

You may need to monitor the nozzle temp with an external digital thermometer,
with thermocouple-probe,
if the printer's indicated temp is not correct.

We have found regular ninjaflex easier to print with than semiflex. Ninjaflex uses the same gcode settings as ABS, but higher prime/unprime values on the heads.
