Prusa Mini+ re-assembled with a new heatblock (and nozzle); first layer calibration looks ok, mostly; Prusa Connect agrees on the nozzle size; all that remains is a test print and hopefully we’re back in business #3dprinting
My next line of enquiry is to see if I can find an older printer profile, from before they enabled input shaping #3dprinting
OK. Plan for 3d printer is to look at the extruder now, start with cleaning the gears.

disassembled extruder, cleaned out detritus, cleaned gears, re-assembled, printer still broken. GAH #3dprinting

@jmtd in the meantime, my Anycubic Kobra managed to goo up itself in a 12h print, I removed the goo by setting the printer to preheat and then using a small gas torch for smaller parts, and it's printing like new again. Hope yours will too one day.
This "curling" looks wrong to me. What could be causing it? This was recorded post filament load (during the "purge and check colour" phase)
@castaway not certain. I’ve been suspicious of it ever since Input shaping was turned on in the slicer. I’m going to try and find the pre-input-shaping profiles; or dig out so really old gcode if I still have some. Thanks
@castaway found some old gcode, the printer actually warns that it is not using input shaping! let's see what happens
@castaway it messed up too :( however I realised later that all my old gcode was sliced for a 0.4 nozzle and I’ve fitted a 0.6 now
@jmtd ah, well that's not gonna help.. mebbe setup a slicer profile from scratch and make sure you pick all the right things?
