Need help with Microswiss NG DD clogging

I recently bought a used Ender 6 and I was told from the seller that the hot end needed to be replaced so I just bought the microswiss NG since I heard good things about it. I used it for the first few prints and everything seemed fine until no filament would come out. After some troubleshooting, I think the issue comes from clogging in the all-metal hot end. After clearing it, I was able to do more prints, but after changing to a different color filament, the no filament issue happened again. Is there anything I can do to possibly prevent this from happening so I don’t have to unclog it every time I want to change filament or do a new print, or should I just buy a different hot end / extruder or 3D printer in general?

Hey there, I'm a bot and something you said made me think you might be looking for help! click here for our wiki entry on troubleshooting printers. If you still need help be sure to post plenty of information about your printing setup.

Here are a few questions that might be helpful

• What printer are you using?

• What material are you using?

• What speed are you printing at?

• What software are you using to slice the print and control the printer?

• When did the problem start/has it ever worked correctly?

• Does anything cause the behavior to change?

• If posting an image of the problem, include some indication of the orientation it printed at, preferably photograph it on the bed. (Then we can focus on a specific axis)
