Prusa MK2S - resume print at lower Z position ?

Hello,

My extruder have a heat creep after about 9h print think that's due to the spool holder too hard create under extrusion who cause that but no and I react a little too slow due to sleeping for pause printing. It's the second time and always after so many hours an during night bad luck.
Now heat creep is solved by loading again PLA but Z is a little bit too high and resuming print not work due to higher position. Not an issue if 5-10mm is missing on the height of this model at the end.

What I can do ?
- Where is the option for choose Z position after resuming can't found anywhere ?
- I can move manually Z of some mm or Prusa printer will detect this change ?
- I can melt some PLA for create extra layer with a solder ?

 

Thank you to help me and not trash again my print due to this and hard to catch due time needing for encounter this issue 🙁

I try to print very slowly for create a new layer but not stick at all and nozzle too low for follow and push filament on previous layer Z height to high from previous layer 🙁

I have launch again a third time and lower temperature try at 210 after 215 but now go back to 205°. I just put nozzle to 230° and load filament for solve this issue when happening in some seconds. It's too long for stay near the print during all the night I need to sleep too and nothing pause printing if extruder can't push filament may be pause print during night... so 13h remaining 🙂

I hope all is fine this time or I can remove this issue before need to cancel print.
You know what can cause this issue after so many hours ? (4/5h print without any issue)

Extruder/fan should be fine and dust too probably clogged before if it's that. I'm already at 0.2mm layer print speed at 100% and heatbed is too far for send any heat interference with head at more than 1cm from heatbed. My MK2S isn't in a enclosure and temperature should be at 20° about may be too low and need to push nozzle temperature to 220" for increase flow ?

Thank you for your reply
