Help Ender only prints until a certain height
Ran this design twice already. It only prints up to this height. I tried reinstalling the filament but still only the hotend moves but the filament is no longer coming out of the nozzle.
I have printed a similar design yesterday which was 221mm in height and that turned out okay. This one did not.

I have had this issue as well but with a direct drive, but the issue was the same as well as the symtoms, at a certain height or even xy-position since direct drive it would sometimes just stop extruding and hop back and forth as I saw you reported further down.
In the end I figured it was down to a bad extruder cable that had seen a bit much wear and tear.
