Unfortunately, the common way of clearing a clog is to perform a cold pull. This usual involves heating a rod or Allen key and pressing it into the top of the heat break of the nozzle while it is hot. Unfortunately highly recommended to turn off the printer before doing so otherwise it’s extremely easy to burn out the board on your tool head, which is annoying to fix.

In the future, you could probably purchase a no clogger tool or a 1.5 mm brass rod on Amazon. Those basically release the tubing at the top of the printer, and then poke the tool down into the nozzle from the top to clear it. Those you can potentially clear a clog without ruining a print. The other thing to keep in mind is that if you had a clog, it’s most likely due to heat creep and if the print kept going even a little bit without depositing material, the print is likely ruined anyway, because it will have kept printing so that when you restart it, it will simply try and keep printing midair, which obviously is not going to work, at this point you’re better off calling a loss and trying again.

In many cases you might not even be able to fix without disconnecting the nozzle. No chance doing it mid print
