Please keep in mind this is a work in progress. I have my Jubilee printing how I feel is relatively well with cura but at the same time my config is a mismash of me probably making changes that aren't needed so I would use this is a vary rough guidelines Special thanks to everyone who helped me get it this far. Hopefully we can form this into a more cohesive guide. -Tsunaminaut
- I added this as a custom printer with x.y, in corner with build area of 305. 305, 305,
- This is my start gcode section in machine settings in Cura
- G28 ;homes the printers x y z and u
- T0 P0 ;Activates tool with P0 so so its standby and set temperature can be set without picking it up
- T1 P0 ;Activates tool with P0 so so its standby and set temperature can be set without picking it up
- T2 P0 ;Activates tool with P0 so so its standby and set temperature can be set without picking it up
- G10 P0 S205 R160 ;Me setting temps as I use the printer settings addon to prevent cura from sending temp info due to how weird my duet reacted to it
- G10 P1 S185 R160 ;Me setting temps as I use the printer settings addon to prevent cura from sending temp info due to how weird my duet reacted to it
- G10 P2 S205 R160 ;Me setting temps as I use the printer settings addon to prevent cura from sending temp info due to how weird my duet reacted to it
- T-1 P0 ;Makes all tool inactive but will maintain standby temp
- G32 ;3 point bed level
- M190 S65 ;Setting my bed temp
- G29 S1 ;Loading my mesh?
- Here is my end gcode section
- M104 S0 ;Sets temp to 0
- M140 S0 ;Sets temp to 0
- G92 E1 ;Extrudes filament?
- G1 E-1 F300 :Retract the filament
- G91 G1 Z20 F600 ;drops Z so I can stop buying limit switches
- T-1 ;Sets all tools to inactive
- G1 Y0 X0 F4000 ;move the carriage out of the way
- M84 ;Stop the idle hold on all axis and extruder
- For each Extruder Start G-code I have T(tool number starting with 0)
- so extruder one start code just says T0
- extruder 2 is T1
- extruder 3 it T2
- I have elected to have nothing in tool end code as my duet config takes care of all that.
- Cura inserts a T0 at the beginning of a print which is problematic
- I overcame this by going into Menu Extensions -> post processing -> Modify Gcode
- From within there I have added a search and replace for this line:
- Generated with Cura_SteamEngine 4.9.1
T0
with
- Generated with Cura_SteamEngine 4.9.1
I was also having issues with pause.g when I would resume it would have my extruder in absolute mode so I did another post processor to replace
M82 ; switch back to absolute E values
with
M83 ; switch back to RELATIVE E values
Note: I am almost completely sure this is not the right way to do this but its working for me at the moment.
- Also I had to install a marketplace addon called printer settings which lets you get to some behind the scenes settings that I needed to adjust attached is a screenshot of how mine is currently setup
