I am happy with the result. There is a black line accross the badge due to the head going through it, but I removed it by sanding it. Maybe I should play with the z-hop setting.

Did you put a pause on a layer to complete the switch over?

I tried many things but most of the gcode instructions are not compatible with my printer. Nowadays, with modern firmwares, you only have to add a M600 instruction ("change filament" instruction). After some attempts, the "pause at height" script in Cura, with the M25 instruction, is what worked.
