Any change to behaviour after those changes?

@p8blr do you have any tool change files? If so, please post them.

No, unfortunately not.

I do not.

Thanks.

@p8blr please can you unload the filament from your hot end and try this file, which is based on yours but uses no heater:

If that still causes the problem on your machine, then we can try removing lines.

p8blr

@dc42 I tried your code and it is still stalling the Z motor.

I tried commenting things out one at a time and discovered getting rid of two of the G92s stops the Z motor from stalling.

But it's so weird because the G92s can be in there if the retraction amount is just right.
(from earlier post)
.97mm and up works
.96mm to .72mm stalls
.71mm and below works

By the way, in relative mode (M83) are G92 E0 ever necessary?

@p8blr please can you try the firmware build at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/cq7q3g8coymo9s3/AABtPYEzV1_unETpKEMPInSia?dl=0. Use it with caution because it has had limited testing.

You seem to be missing some files. Please upload this zip file as is to the system tab in DWC.

https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.zip

That should get you everything you need to then update to the beta build.

This beta firmware resolved the issue! I will continue using the beta firmware, and keep my eye on the printer. Thanks!
