Pause: Move hot end to front for cleaning

When I pause a print because of the hot end accumulating external filament, it would be nice if there was a way to move the hot end to the front to facilitate cleaning the excess filament from the nozzle. Otherwise, I have to abort the print, clean the nozzle and then start over.

If you switch it off you can move the head and on switch back on, printer will interpret as a power failure and would propose to resume the print. Not a great way to operate the printer though, can’t you remove the filament from where the head sits?

Here is a link to a thread concerning a similar issue you might check out.
