* Update infill documentation and images

Removed outdated 'iso' infill images and updated 'top' infill images with new versions. Added new images for adaptive cubic and 2D honeycomb infill patterns. Updated strength_settings_infill.md to revise infill strength values, descriptions, and remove references to deleted images. Introduced documentation for 2D honeycomb infill and made minor corrections and clarifications throughout.

* Revise infill pattern documentation and add comparison table

Updated strength_settings_infill.md to clarify infill density calculation, add a comprehensive comparison table of infill patterns, and standardize terminology for strength and print time. Expanded pattern descriptions to use qualitative strength ratings instead of numeric values. Updated infill_desc_calculator.xlsx to reflect these changes.

* Indentation in  code examples

Adjusted the indentation of code blocks in the cornering calibration documentation for clarity and consistency with the rest of the document.

* Update 3D Honeycomb infill strength ratings

Adjusted the horizontal strength rating for 3D Honeycomb infill from 'Normal' to 'Normal-High' in the strength settings documentation and table. Updated the infill_desc_calculator.xlsx file to reflect these changes.

* Formatting and fix in ERS documentation

Updated headings to use consistent Markdown syntax, improved clarity in explanations, and reworded references for better readability.

* Fix wall generator doc link and filename

Updated the Home.md to reference the correct 'quality_settings_wall_generator' section and renamed the corresponding documentation file for consistency.

# Pellet Flow Coefficient
Large format printers with print volumes in the order of 1m^3 generally use pellets for printing.
The overall tech is very similar to FDM printing.
It is FDM printing, but instead of filaments, it uses pellets.
The difference here is that where filaments have a filament_diameter that is used to calculate
the volume of filament ingested, pellets have a particular flow_coefficient that is empirically
devised for that particular pellet.
pellet_flow_coefficient is basically a measure of the packing density of a particular pellet.
Shape, material and density of an individual pellet will determine the packing density and
the only thing that matters for 3d printing is how much of that pellet material is extruded by
one turn of whatever feeding mehcanism/gear your printer uses. You can emperically derive that
for your own pellets for a particular printer model.
We are translating the pellet_flow_coefficient into filament_diameter so that everything works just like it
does already with very minor adjustments.
```math
\text{filament\_diameter} = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times \text{pellet\_flow\_coefficient}}{\pi}}
```
sqrt just makes the relationship between flow_coefficient and volume linear.
higher packing density -> more material extruded by single turn -> higher pellet_flow_coefficient -> treated as if a filament of larger diameter is being used
All other calculations remain the same for slicing.

# Single Extruder Multimaterial Printing in OrcaSlicer
## Introduction
In this guide, we will explain the parameters for single extruder multimaterial printing in OrcaSlicer. The whole process and parameters are same as PrusaSlicer as OrcaSlicer is based on PrusaSlicer.
OrcaSlicer has some additional features and minor differences though. We will explain them in this guide.
## Prime tower
The prime tower is a structure that is printed before the actual print to ensure that the nozzle is primed with the correct filament. It helps to prevent oozing and stringing during the print. The prime tower can be customized in various ways, such as its size, shape, and position.
## Ramming
Ramming is a technique used to push the filament through the nozzle to ensure that it is primed and ready for printing. It can be adjusted in terms of speed and distance to optimize the priming process.
## Manual filament change
Manual filament change is a feature that allows the user to change the filament during the print. This can be useful for multi-material prints or when changing colors. The user can specify the position and timing of the filament change, as well as the speed and distance of the ramming process.
