The stepper doesnt determine the extrusion length. If you need to calibrate google "triffid hunter calibration guide".

Divide 80.5 (step/mm) by 76 (distance extruded)

Multiply result by 100 (distance required)

So Esteps/mm wants to be 106. or 105.92. Try that number and repeat to double check/ fine tune

It is easier and quicker to do this calibration without the hotend attached and just wind out the filament into free air.

Your stepper is a YH42BYGH47-401A Nema_17_Stepping_Motor
