How to disable the the printed line at the beginning of each print ?

Hello to all,
i am a new user in Simplify3D and already trying some prints.
Works great.

Only one issue i would like to solve:
Because of printing Polypropylen i have a special cover fixed with clips on my printer bed.

When start printing Simplify3D always prints a line on the left front corner, close to the border of the printer bed.
This collapses with one of my clips.

Is there a way to deactivate this initial line ?

Thank you
Karl

Hi Skerge12,
the issue does not depend on S3D.

I suppose your are using some print profile that you have imported into S3D.
So if you look inside the Scripts > Starting script tab you will find the instructions that are followed by the printer before start printing, including the G1 command(s) that will produce the purge line.

So I suggest you to understand more about GCode in order to properly edit the Starting/Ending scripts, tailoring the instructions on your needs!

Thank you for this, I was having the same problem, but for a different reason. Commenting out the GCode in the scripts tab took care of it.
