Very well explained, just to complement, you don't necessarily need to remove the tube from the extruder to change the filament, you can replace this step with the Retract feature, and the installed tube will help guide the filament into the extruder, it also helps you not left a broken piece of filament inside of the extruder.... the trade-off here is that you need to push the filament from the other side of the tube, this might not work if the filament is very soft. I've been doing this for PLA with no issues

Omg this helped so much! The tutorial was perfect! I now have burnt titanium colored filament in my printer for a headphone stand. Thanks for the tutorial!

One of these very useful videos - thank you. Only issue for me with my printer is that my tube does not release with a press of the white tube holder. However after unlocking and using retract the filament can jst be pulled out.

shot buddy - @Decoda do a "First time printing" video with a simple example

Great process but I pulled the filament all the way out without disconnected the tube. I was using the Hyper PLA and it cracked in two places during the process, inside the tube. Then I had to remove the tube and used the new filament to push the bits out of the tube.

Forgot to close the latch in the extruder
