Just a status update before I sign off for the weekend (or at least the evening).
Manual leveling was necessary. Still I had to increase the distance further to be able to print a first layer.
Last test print I made was at a temperature setting of 230 deg. It looks almost as good as one done with the standard print head at 205deg (default setting), so next I'll try 240 deg.
Overall decent progress. The impression I get is that the temperature sensor in the Hardcore deviates from that of the standard head so the actual temperature is lower than what the UM3 thinks it is.

Selecting AA 0.4 is fine. (note I am the distributor for 3dsolex for usa). I have no idea what's up with autoleveling - it should work fine. The UM3 has a sensor in the head behind the n

Do a cold pull. Especially because this is a brand new core I'm thinking some small piece of metal was in the nozzle. I resell 3dsolex cores and I inspect EVERY Nozzle and about 1 in 50 have a piece

Hi Sander - No I didn't try the abrasive material yet. First want to get the HardCore + Everlast working with ordinary PLA before I try new feedstock. The printer hasn't got many hours on it, perhaps 50, all with PLA.
