Wipe-tower

(Purge-tower)

Part of print, built up by purged material during filament/color changes. The purge is necessary to remove any traces of the previous color from the hotend and build up pressure for the new filament. The size of the purge tower might be made smaller by using the PrusaSlicer tools "Wipe into this object's infill" and "Wipe into this object".
