M73 commands?
Posted: Mon Apr 16, 2018 11:02 am
Hi,
I'm trying to get my head around progress and print time prediction. I've found that there is such a thing as the M73 command in gCode. It might not be supported by many printers according to http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#M73:_Set_build_percentage but it exists.
Search the forum I find loads of posts that have gcode with the M73 command, which makes me think Simplify3D supports it in some way, is that correct?
If so, why might it not be showing up in my gcodes? do I need to enable a setting? is it enabled through the printer profile somehow?
Cheers!
