How to extrude filament before print

[johnfrank]

Hello community and sorry if there is a same topic in the forum. I want the S3D to extrude filament before a print start like cura do. I achieved to do that with gcode like "extrude 5mm feed stock". Is there a way to do that from the software as default? I added more skirt lines but when filament is extruded before print i have better adhense

Thanks, John

Well what printer do you have? Different printers use different commands, so if you want help, that would be some good info to start with

But yes, typically all you need to do is add 1 or 2 lines into your starting script and then it will run before every print. For example:

G92 E0 ; zero the E-axis
G1 E20 F800 ; extrude 20mm of filament at 800mm/min
