Unable to print from downloaded files  

RE: Unable to print from downloaded files

Hi Joan,

The test file loaded into the printer which hasn't happened befor so we are getting somewhere. Unfortunately, after printing a line down the LHS of the bed it then throws an error....

Unable to parse move 'G1 X 0.4 Y 20 Z 0.30.2 F 1500.0 E 30; Draw the second line'

At least you've given me something to tinker with.

Many thanks for your help.

Graham

Note the Z value: 0.30.2

That looks like it is coming from Printer Settings -> Custom G-code -> Start G-code (that is an expert mode option).

G1 X0.4 Y20 Z0.3[first_layer_height] F1500.0 E30 ; Draw the second line

My guess is that you need to remove the "0.3" after the "Z"

To @jimb

That's right, the error comes from Prusa Research and is exactly in the place you describe. The line should look like this:

G1 X0.4 Y20 Z[first_layer_height] F1500.0 E30 ; Draw the second line

The startup gcode in the printer profile needs to be modified according to your design, save the profile and use it instead of the original one.
