Does anyone have a idea for a good simple macro to retract the extruder head from a riprap style printer when the print is finished. It appears simplify 3d is always stopping directly on top of my print when finished and damaging it!
I'm thinking there is a G-Code string that can tell it to retract the extruder head Z-Axis or something similar.
Re: Retract Extruder When Done Printing
If you want to lower the print bed after the print completes, add the following line to your ending gcode script
G1 Zxxx F3000 (where xxx is your maximum Z-height)
Although a simpler method might just be to home the X-axis
G28 X0
G1 Zxxx F3000 (where xxx is your maximum Z-height)
Although a simpler method might just be to home the X-axis
G28 X0
