Good to know
Its hard to see for sure if the filament is being pulled in correctly. It was really tight getting the PLA thru the wood opening then I kept hitting the plastic piece around the Bowden tube (in the extruder) to finally get it into the print head.
Based on the fact it dribbled hot plastic, I might be fussing over nothing
How do you gents calibrate your print head to the bed?
Also...I put in a support ticket for the error i got with the limit switch. I saw a lot of discussions about this elsewhere but curious if this is any kind of show stopper?

The Ultimcontroller option to extrude is in the prepare->move axis section, but only for the 0.1mm and maybe 1mm increment options.
However, I advise not using it. Just turn the gear wheel by hand. Much easier and safer. Using the Ulticontroller tries to extrude much faster than the nozzle can handle, and can cause blockages.
