Can I remove all comments with some preference settings?

As I saw that Simplify3D creates a very long comments in front of real working gcodes.

And this creates a problem to my machine(using repetier-firmware 0.92),sometimes the gcode file cannot be printed. But after removed all comments, it's OK for printing.

So, is there any solution to remove the comments inside Simplify3D(without editing using 3rd party editor)?

Best regards.

Wow, I'd be shocked if any modern firmware can't handle comments in your gcode file. That's pretty simple stuff, and every firmware I know of has no problem with it.

However, if you really want to get rid of all comments for some odd reason, then just add the following line to your "commands for post-processing" section on the Scripts tab

{STRIP ";"}
