I have a Stacker printer - http://www.stacker3d.com/

This machine is currently not listed in your supported printers, but I have been able to slice successfully from Simplify 3D for the stacker however. My question is - can I create a custom profile for this printer so that when I select the profile from the drop down I get the correct machine settings / build volume etc etc? A further complication is that this printer has four print heads allowing for simultaneous printing of four identical parts. I don't need additional G-code to drive the other heads as this is handled in the firmware of the machine, however, the build volume changes depending on whether you have 1,2,3 or 4 parts selected. Is there a way to handle this?

Many thanks,

Nick

Sure, you just click "Save As New" once you get all the settings correct to create a new profile. Then you can enable the machine definition and firmware overrides, which will automatically update these settings whenever you load that profile.

They have a video that explains it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYPUAqT4UyI

Thats great, thanks.
