... This all sounds great. retractions and priming inserted with a REPLACE command will not have knowledge of the current E value leading up to your pause command. So if you include adjustments to the E value I recommend that they be performed with "Relative Extrusions" enabled and then disabled ...

Hello fellow makers so was just looking for a wee bit of help I’m printing a item that I am inserting a magnet into that’s no problem I got the pause at layer height and move to x 0 y 0 and beep to alert it’s waiting But in addition to that I’d like to have it turn the extruder off so I don’t ...

... would be helpful to check the settings. Or the same segments from a gcode file created with S3D vs. Cura. If other slicers gcode doesn't cause the pause while printing it should be easy to find. Just a guess, but is "Relative extrusion distances" selected? If not there might be a G92 E0 following ...

... "Only retract when crossing open spaces" on the "Advanced" tab might have an impact here. Would be good to see settings/gcode because of that pause/delay you mention...

Can you clarify if you're having issues with the Simplify3D machine control panel's pause function or that of the Ender 5 Pro's own printer controls?

... Pro. I understand how to use S3D to stop at a desired height to change filament colours or for some other task, however I am looking to be able to pause "on the fly" as it were as If suddenly i realise my filament is going to run out or I just want to for some reason. Having the print head stop ...

... is used for printing (as opposed to something like SD Card or USB Printing), Marlin sends a command back to the host to ask the HOST software to pause the print. So, yes - the filament runout bits exist and are handled in Marlin - 100% when using SD/Storage printing, but only the detection is ...

... layer from the second gcode file. This will result in massive overextrusion. If I may suggest something: Check out if your printer does support a pause/change filament command, like M600. As far as I can tell your Mega X is based on Marlin firmware, so it should support this command: https://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/M600.html ...

Hey Everyone, Like the title suggests I am trying to captivate some hardware (nuts) in my print. I could not get the pause script to work so instead I did two prints. The first print, I printed up to layer X and stopped. I inserted the hardware and then ran another print where is ...
