    @AnnaAnimus - in Cura just above all the settings type "temp" in the search box.  standby temp is not visible unless you have at least 2 extruders enabled.  The temp is set I think in your profile.  So maybe just manually put a lower temp in there.  150C for PLA might work well.

     

    If the filament curls and hits the nozzle it indicates you could use a cleaning (cold pulls - look it up).  Maybe using a hypodermic scraping the inside of the nozzle tip.

     

    But sometimes you get curling even when the amount of cleaning needed is pretty minor and at the same time very hard to get completely clean.

     

    I don't worry about this so much - the initial wipe motion in your gcode should remove any balls of filament off the nozzle at the start.  If not then maybe it's not leveling very well and not making good contact with your bed.  Or maybe your bed needs cleaning (oils and dust can make it so that the PLA doesn't stick as well).

    Yeah I'm having a lot of issues... I think I'm going to try cleaning my bed, and my nozzle. I'll look up cold pulls, thank you.

    Sorry, I mixed up some heatup commands. If you copy/pasted the code before now, please do so again.

    Have I done something wrong? I put your gcode in, but when I went to start a print my extruder simply heated up to target temperature instead of a standby temperature. Is there a setting somewhere for standby temperature that I need to manually set first?

    I have attached a photo of my gcode. Please let me know if I need to attach any more photos. Sorry for the inconvenience. Also, I used the gcode you amended, as I only woke up recently, after you edited it. Thank you!
    Edit: I figured out how to change my stand-by temperature on my extruder, so now I'm trying out my first print, ABL is currently going, no stringing :), I will keep you updated. Please let me know if there are any issues with my gcode though please.

    Hi, I have the BL touch auto leveling, and it works great.... except for one issue. First my bed heats up, and then my extruder(hot end?) heats up, and then my BL touch does it's thing. The issue is with my extruder/hot end heated up, the filament starts oozing out a tiny bit and kinda curls up on itself and makes a little ball, and no matter how hard I try I'm very unsuccessful at removing it, and this causes my prints to fail almost instantly. Is it possible to change my gcode to do bed heat, bl touch, then extruder heat up and printing?

    My gcode is:

    M201 X500.00 Y500.00 Z100.00 E5000.00 ;Setup machine max acceleration

    M203 X500.00 Y500.00 Z10.00 E50.00 ;Setup machine max feedrate

    M204 P500.00 R1000.00 T500.00 ;Setup Print/Retract/Travel acceleration

    M205 X8.00 Y8.00 Z0.40 E5.00 ;Setup Jerk

    M220 S100 ;Reset Feedrate

    M221 S100 ;Reset Flowrate

    G1 X10.1 Y20 Z0.28 F5000.0 ;Move to start position

    G1 X10.1 Y200.0 Z0.28 F1500.0 E15 ;Draw the first line

    G1 X10.4 Y200.0 Z0.28 F5000.0 ;Move to side a little

    G92 E0 ;Reset Extruder

    G1 Z2.0 F3000 ;Move Z Axis up

    G29 is what does my BL touch, if I understand correctly. I'm new to 3d printing and have zero experience with coding or gcode, so I don't know at all, sorry. If there are any issues please let me know.
