Re: Simplify3D Profile for MakerGear M3-SE Needed
I tried the MakerGear M2 (24V V4 hotend) printer profile in Simplify3D for my new M3-SE and it worked great. Thanks!
MakerGear technical support also said that profile was fine to use. In related news, Rick said they are working on a related instructional video in his post in the other forum.

The printer comes with instructions regarding how to use OctaPrint with an open source slicer but I didn't see any instructions for Simplify3d printer settings.
