Hi guys,
I've got an FFCP clone and I've started using the dual extrusion. For my current project my color change is height based. Here's the issue:
I was having oozing issues and I decided why not just cool off the extruder I'm not using for the first half of the print after it does its prime line. However, when setting up multiple processes, whether I use the dual extrusion wizard or not, the ooze shield setting is ignoring which extruder is set to build the ooze shield and alternates regardless (which grinds on one of the extruder's filament since it's cooled to 150C after the first layer for half the print). My only solution so far is to use the checkboxes for "Start/Stop Printing At X Height". However, there is a direct setting in the ooze shield that allows me to set which extruder to use for it and that should work correctly.
After some extensive testing I can't really find what's wrong. I have the "Auto-configure for Extruders" set to both on each process (but I ungroup and change which extruder is used on the ooze shield). Is there a way I can set the first process to right and the second process to left and have it work correctly? I have attached my dual extrusion profile. I received this from someone on Thingiverse and I was told it is the product of extensive Qidi testing so I've used a derivative of this profile for all of my printing profiles. The only part where I'm a bit lost is in the scripts section but I would think that wouldn't be an issue when there is a direct setting in the ooze shield section.
I would prefer not to solve this by using one extruder as this issue is bound to crop up again when trying to dual extrude something not height based.
