And the power panic resume didn't work :(. This was also my first try at manually changing filaments for multiple colors, waste of effort and filament lol.

I've done it once so far with good results. Setup a color change in Cura and then when that layer comes, the extruder moves to the corner where you unload and reload the filament and then purge it manually. Finally remove any stringing bits and resume the print immediately.
