only slicing with extruder 1
Closed this issue · 6 comments
What happened?
Trying to get an IDEX setup going, the linux version from 2.5.59.9 through 2.5.59.13 will not use any settings for extruder 2. everything sliced is going to extruder 1 only.
Project file & How to reproduce
Sindoh 3DWOX1 Filament Spool Spacer v6 - BOTTOM.zip
Version
2.5.59.9+
Operating system
Linux Mint 21
Printer model
Sindoh 3DWOX x2
it's just that the gcode viewer can't understand if your toolchange custom gcode change the tool or not.
You can add a T{next_extruder} in it if it doesn't confuse your printer (or just to check the viewer).
Also, you use the "parallel printing steps", It seems that this feature broke the tool change, have to fix it. You should disable it in the meantime.
I have this for my tool change
M104 {next_extruder} S{first_layer_temperature} ;Heat up the 1th nozzle - print temperature
M104{previous_extruder} S100
G0 F2400 Z0.200
{next_extruder}
G1 F1800 E0.00000
M107 {previous_extruder}
M109 {next_extruder} S{first_layer_temperature}
I thought the middle line {next_extruder} should be putting T0 or T1 in the code
And this is the output T1 only shows up in the header and footer. No tool changes are getting into the actual gcode.

sorry, just caught your detail of "T" in there. I will try this now.
The reason I left out the T is because the AMS uses an M-code that has L{next_extruder} and it was crashing the firmware with M298LT1 making me think that the place holder was including the T.
Tried T{next_extruder} still not working
added comment ;Change Tool and can only find the comment in the footer of the gcode
I am going to close this, I have been able to somewhat get it to work. I still have issues trying to get the custom g-code to co-operate with this printer. It will process single color and print just fine. I can get the output gcode to add tool changes but only for line type override. The printer firmware still vomits when I try to print in two color.
