Using less filament than commanded means it is slipping on the feed
rollers.  There is a pressure adjustment.  On my printer it is a screw with
a spring and you adjust it to control pressure on the rollers.    But these
are the kinds of details that vary from one printer to the other.

If this is a mechanical issue you shouldn't try and compensate with a
software setting.

I'm lucky and never once even after printing many spools of plastic had
even one clogged nozzle.   Being so lucky means I have zero experience with
the problem.   But I'd think it is not easy to clear it as it would be
filled with hard plastic.
