The idea is that, at the start of each layer, your printer should print this first. This will help to ensure the filament is flowing nicely after a filament change, before starting to print with the new filament.</p><p>You can adjust the size and position of the Priming Block to suit your needs. Don't make it too large though, as you'll be wasting filament.</p><p>Print using your slicer's 'pause at height'/'filament change' feature, ensuring to switch the filament somewhere between the desired heights.
