Is it possible to set up homing for the extruder

Hello, I am working with a syringe extruder. When I run out of material in the syringe I would like to be able to have a "home" position to pull the syringe plunger back to, for reloading. I already have an endstop that pauses the printer when the plunger reaches the end of the syringe. I'd like to have an endstop at the opposite end for unloading.

Is it possible to home an extruder as one would an X, Y, or Z axis?

    No E homing is not supported.

    In your special case you know already you are at the other endstop you could replace homing with a E move of known distance.
