Well BIQU's store front is still in limbo on Amazon, but their assorted size SS nozzle set that I ordered the day before their hiatus began did arrive via foreign post / USPS today from Singapore. All I have is a few small bits to check sizes with, but I can confirm that things which measure smaller than the marked nozzle sizes do fit into their respective nozzle, and things that measure larger won't. The (PTFE tube chamfer) depth inside the nozzle tip is a bit deeper than the stock QiDi nozzle, but it all fits correctly on the printer.

I've been using Simplify3d for my slicing and printing since about 2 weeks after I received my printer and have been really pleased with it's performance. I was never happy with the original slicing software that came with the printer. FYI the latest Simplify3d software revision/update was posted in Jun. The printer/machine choices include the Qidi Tech 1. The only changes I make to the default profile is slightly cooler extruder and bed temps and extrusion rates based on which brand & type of filament I'm using.

There was an update to the QIDI profile about a week ago. It should prompt you to download if you want it. The only real change was to the script so the extruder doesn't bang into the left side of the cabinet.
If your script line looks like this you are probably good to go. G1 X-110 Y-70 Z30 F9000 ; Move to wait position off table. The older one said -120 I think.

What it comes down to is the unload speed is way too slow. What happens is melted filament is slowly drawn up the cold area of the hot end and hardens and clogs. Now sometimes it is low enough where it will still remelt, but usually it wont.

How are you guys preventing color bleed when changing filaments? I changed from red to yellow but after several prints the yellow is still tinged with the red.
