something unclear, retraction is set to 0.7 and restart to -0.2 (so restart also should retract) with 15mm/sec retraction speed

Code: Select all

...
;   extruderRetractionDistance,0.7
;   extruderExtraRestartDistance,-0.2
...
;   extruderRetractionSpeed,900
...
;   toolChangeRetractionDistance,12
;   toolChangeExtraRestartDistance,-0.5
;   toolChangeRetractionSpeed,600
but in gcode I see

Code: Select all

...

isn't G92 E0 missing before each G1 E-0.2000 F900 ?

It looks like that may be what is happening but we have not seen this before. It is possible any number of things might be affecting this though. Can you please post a Factory File where this gcode was created so we can take a deeper look?
