    It depends I guess. How many different types of material are you switching between, and how often? We commonly use PLA, PHA, ABS, ASA, HIPS, PETG, TPU, PP-GF, PA-CF, BVOH, and occasionally a few others/composites/etc. Some of them really don’t play nice with each other either.

      PLA, PETG, ASA, ASA-CF, PET, PETG-CF and on rare occasions TPU85A, with the first 3 being the “regulars”

        You must have your stuff pretty well dialed in then, congrats! We don’t get like a lot of jams, but since we print for so many patrons, the machines are just kinda always running. So it’s relatively rare, but it still happens
