Hi Greg, thanks for the response. I guess I didn't write my original question clearly. I've proven that its not the material or temperature. The actual extruder motor won't retract at random times during travel between two separate parts of the same print. Sometimes it retracts other times it won't over the same travel path. Retraction is mostly perfect if within an individual part. Problem mostly occurs during travel between two separate parts. That's why in picture #3, the two sets of stringing test posts, there are no stringing within one set, but lots of stringing between the separate sets
