      @Diamondback No it shouldn't damage anything. I think what happens is that the back emf equals the input voltage and the driver basically detects that as a possible disconnect.

      That's correct.

        @diamondback are you using mesh bed compensation with taper when this issue occurs?

          I am indeed using a tapered mesh bed compensation, however, that only gets activated prior to starting a job. I don't think it gets deactivated afterwards though, so it might very well be active sometimes when this happens.
          Maybe that explains the seemingly random nature, doing filament changes after power-up vs after a print job...
          If you suspect that the mesh has something to do with it, is there a specific gcode I should try to put in my post print macro that deactivates the mesh again?
          Or would changing something abuot the taper help?
          I can't really turn off the mesh for actual printing I'm afraid.

            @diamondback thanks. One of our collaborators has tracked down a cause of extruder-only moves happening too fast, but he can only make it occur when bed compensation taper is in use. I am working on a fix to include in 3.4.2. Meanwhile can you try disabling bed compensation taper, to see if the problem still occurs?

              Ok, will disable it and see what happens 👍

                @diamondback one more question: does the tool concerned have a nonzero Z offset?

                  It's a toolchanger where all 4 tools have non-zero offsets in all axis. (the toolhead/coupling/toolplate system is the one from E3D)

                    @diamondback @natthapol-v @danzaywer I have put new 3.4.2rc2+ firmware builds to fix this at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7tf55ax00ky1pyx/AAA_eVJE20oYUON_gjKhCHsja?dl=0. I have tested the fix on the Duet 3 MB6HC build.

                    I was only able to reproduce this issue after when using tapered mesh bed compensation. Thanks for your patience.

                      Awesome, so with that updated firmware, using a taper shouldn't be an issue anymore?

                          So far, no issues. 👏 But haven't printed/changed filaments a lot yet
