However I have some issues with the pause at heigth function.
The function itself works very well, but while I pause the print to do a manual intervention a lot of PLA is oozing out of the nozzle. So, when I restart the print, the material is not coming out of the nozzle just yet, only after ~3 layers the density is as it should be, so I have a print that easily breaks in two pieces.
I tried playing with retraction, but it does not imprve.
Personally I would like to stop heating the nozzle, so it can cool down to ~170°C to stop the oozing. And to reheat it to printing temperature after I am done with my intervention.

Any suggestions?
