    have you changed the filament spool ?

    I have arule that if one roll of filametn clogs more than once i throw it away.
    Or you could send it back I suppose.

    I had some amazing silver/grey pla last year. Just the best stuff to print with ever, 3 rolls perfect. One killed clogged.
    I pulled a bunch of filament off the spool. Then tried it again, clogged.
    Pulled 50 metres or so off and tried again. Clog.
    Threw it away.

    I think som,etimes the colourant just doesn't get properly mixed or maybe some of the other additives are not right.
    As manufacturers refuse to state what's in filament - it's all guesswork.

    But a spool that clogs more than once will most likely continue to clog through the whole spool.
