Is it possible for the leftover residue, of tape on a spool to be scraped into the feed? As the filament drags over the edges of the spool?

I guess it would be small. What about a small triangle of it?

I'm asking because I got a weird droplet in my feed that showed up in a duplicate print.

A small triangle of tape, or just tape adhesive?

I'd definitely be more inclined to think tape could be more of a concern than jist the adhesive. Probably if it were me, I'd just try to be more thorough about removing all the tape from the spool (and not worry about small amounts of residual adhesive.)

Also, a description and/or picture of the filament and tape you're talking about could help.

Yeah just the residue, no visible pieces of tape. Sorry for the late response.
