Cura startup script

Post by jsc » Fri Aug 22, 2014 6:20 am

Here's my latest startup script for Cura dual extrusion. Does the familiar extrude and wipe, T1 first. Offsets in Y to avoid retracing already laid filament on the wipe.

Also, I tried 16mm as the dual extrusion retraction, and it worked great. No perceptible oozing. I had also dried out my PLA for the past week at 24% RH while I was away, so that may have contributed.

Code: Select all

;Sliced at: {day} {date} {time}
;Basic settings: Layer height: {layer_height} Walls: {wall_thickness} Fill: {fill_density}
;Print time: {print_time}
;Filament used: {filament_amount}m {filament_weight}g
;Filament cost: {filament_cost}
M190 S{print_bed_temperature}
M104 T0 S{print_temperature}
M109 T1 S{print_temperature2}
M109 T0 S{print_temperature}
