If find nozzle jam or extruder motor knocking, please raise the nozzle temperature about 5 to
10 degree and try again. If you use glass on the bed, you may need to raise the bed temperature
about 5 degree then the recommended one. The faster you print, the higher temperature for the
nozzle. You can try faster speeds then the recommended ones above, and find whether you can
accept the quality.
For flexible filament, when you slice the file on slicer software, increase the retraction
distance.
