Yes, it was. The fan on the volcano's heat sink needs to be on all the time, or heat from the hot end will creep up, cause the filament in the cold end to expand and create a blockage.

After the end of a print, you need to leave your printer powered on for a while so everything has a chance to cool down properly.
