Problem with printing

Hello, I'm a new user of this software. I have a problem. I printed with one kind of PLA. After that i change with other kind of PLA filament. After the change the printer stopped print. The printer is printing but the filament not to extrude. I don't know, what i do. Could you tell me what i s the problem?

Thanks :)

Re: Problem with printing

The problem is the nozzle above the heater needs to be removed because you most likely have a small ball of material which will not allow new filament to be pushed through. Need to remove this and clean it out. You may be able to remove it with a pair of p needle nose pliers. One way to prevent this is first extruding a bit then removing the filament.
