That pushed me in the right direction, Ryan. I still need to play with it more and I wish that S3D had a profile for the TAZ 5 with the single 0.5mm nozzle, but starting with the dual 0.5mm and removing the extruder at index 1 made for a nice start.

<p>I've been searching, but I'm coming up empty-handed. They have a file for the TAZ with the 0.35mm nozzle, but I'm not certain if I can just change the nozzle size and be done with it.</p>

Does anyone have a Simplify3D configuration file for a Lulzbot TAZ 5 with a 0.5mm nozzle?
