Working with the Materials Page Material Load Controls
The Unload button will be displayed for all material spools whose filament is loaded to the
corresponding head. Pressing this button will instruct the printer to begin the process of
unloading material (see "Unloading Material" (page 114) for details).
The Load button will be displayed for all material spools whose filament has contacted the
filament present switch in the material drive but is not yet loaded to the head, given that
material from another spool is not already loaded to the corresponding head. Pressing this
button will instruct the printer to begin the process of loading material (see "Loading Material"
(page 110) for details). If the corresponding head is already loaded with material, the Load
button will appear in its disabled state.
The Cancel button will be displayed for a spool only after the spool's corresponding Unload or
Load button has been pressed. Pressing this button will instruct the printer to cancel the
material load or unload already in process (see "Material Load/Unload Cancellation" (page 78)
for details).
Pressing the Maintenance button displays the Material Maintenance screen.

Pressing the Force Unloaded button sets the head and material bay to Unloaded status. This is
used in situations where the system incorrectly displays a Loaded status for a print head. It is
possible to use this button to set the head status to Unloaded when the head is actually loaded.
If this occurs, perform a standard load procedure and the status will be corrected.
Pressing the Details button displays the Materials screen.
