Pressure Advance
An easy explanation of Pressure Advance (also known as Linear Advance) is this opening to this article by Prusa Research:
Linear Advance (LA) is a technology that predicts the pressure build-up in the extruder when printing at higher speeds. The firmware of the printer uses that prediction to decrease the amount of filament extruded just before stopping and decelerating, which prevents blobs or artifacts at the sharp corners.
Klipper's docs demonstrate this practically further:
Pressure advance does two useful things - it reduces ooze during non-extrude moves and it reduces blobbing during cornering. This guide uses the second feature (reducing blobbing during cornering) as a mechanism for tuning.
In order to calibrate pressure advance the printer must be configured and operational as the tuning test involves printing and inspecting a test object.
