If the M218 command isn't working, then you must have something wrong in the firmware. That's supported out of the box with Marlin. So it sounds like you've got something wrong there, and of course, the toolhead offsets are specified in the firmware so their default value is obviously wrong too Hey...
Hey there, I am using a second extruder for the generated support material. - I have tried the M218 code, but no positive results. - Second extruder turns on fine and extrudes filament, but as if no offset was specified. Using reprap marlin. - g-code generated by S3D: M106 S0 M140 S110 M190 S110 M10...
Hey, just an update.
- Issue is now resolved.
- For those who are having the same issue: Error is unknown. After tweaking with settings, it just started working. Not sure exactly what the issue was.
Did you setup the profile on your own? Is it properly configured to turn on and heat up both extruders? Why don't you post your factory file (file --> save factory file) Hey Joe, I did set up profile. Everything seems to be working fine, both hotends heat up fine too. But when the tool head moves a...
Hey Joe, Thanks for the link, it clearly explains how to use the M218 g-code, so thank you so much for that helpful link. Solves one issue. I am using a reprap mendel with arduino mega using marlin firmware. Still not quite sure why the extruder isnt working during print though. Any links/advice wil...
Hey there, I just recently switched from slic3r to simplify3d for my slicing needs. I have a couple of issues that I was hoping someone could help me with. I have a dual extruder setup, the 2nd extruder is located 25mm to the left of the main extruder (on the x axis); how do I communicate this infor...
