I use a bit of Pritt in the print area and I physically push the filament with my fingers into the feeder for the first ten seconds, (Helping hand) the head height is also important, to low and the extruder pushes the filament out of the way, to high and it follows the extruder, instead of staying where it lands...One thing I really need to figure out is how to get the first line of plastic to stick to the bed better. I'm sure it's some combo of bed-height, bed temp, bed material, print speed, extruder temp, etc
The first ten seconds is the most important..
