This is primarily meant for extruders that use 3 millimeter filament.This ensures that, throughout the entire print, the extruder’sstepper motor is kept engaged and does not allow the filament tocreep out. This is mostly a problem with extruders that accept 3millimeter filament, as larger filament generates more back pressure.Therefore, this option is intended to counteract the tendency offilament to back out of the extruder when the stepper motor istemporarily disabled, a command some slicerswill add to theprint command file (for instance, ReplicatorG). For Cupcakeprinters the default is on; for all other printers, the default isoff.
I see. The FFCP doesn't have that setting in the panel and the QIDI is running so can't check. Going to start another test on the FFCP and see how it goes.

Should force retraction be on or off? Seems to not make much difference I think ...
