    I want to experiment with different extruder temps. When I adjust the extruder temp down to 195°, the print will run but the extruder does not. If I go back to 210°, everything works again. Is there a cold nozzle tempature setting in the matter control settings that prevents the extruder from printing if the temp is too low? I cannot seem to find it.

    In the firmware.
    configuration.h

    #define EXTRUDE_MINTEMP 170

    (that is from the 6_10 release, not sure what might be set in yours)

    195 does seem a bit high for the EXTRUDE_MINTEMP, but...
