    I think it's gotten a little worse after a recent jam up. After removing the nozzle and doing my best to clean it out I got the printer to print again. It did just as well as it did before the jam. But about a week later (printed only for about 3hrs over the week) issues came back. I ordered a cleaning filament and a new nozzle so I will give these two a try. I bought the printer refurbished so who knows what was done to the printer. It might have some rough past.

    New nozzle is certainly a good idea (I keep spares). Make sure you season it (or continue to use the oiler).

    Absolutely! I'm not quite sure about how does the cleaning filament work. Do I just run it thru? Or heat it up, send it in and pull back out?
