Where is the g code for Prusa's printable parts for the mk3s+?

Where is the g code for Prusa's printable parts for the mk3s+?

All I can find arw the stl's.

The site clearly states there is g code for the upgrade parts and yet I cannot find them.

Thanks, 

Eric

The Author has not uploaded any pre-sliced print files on https://www.printables.com/en/model/57217-i3-mk3s-printable-parts/files

RE:

https://www.printables.com/model/57217-i3-mk3s-printable-parts doesn't mention gcode.

https://help.prusa3d.com/article/printable-parts-for-original-prusa_1824 mentions gcode but says "pre-sliced GCODES for all upgrades." (bolded by Prusa). And sure enough, the Mk3S to Mk3S+ upgrade has gcode files, as does the Mk3 to Mk3S+ upgrade.

Why only the upgrades? Only Joe knows.

Anywho, I personally strongly prefer slicing my own files, rather than using a prefabricated gcode. For example, I very much like gyroid or adaptive cubic rather than the grid infill pattern in the standard slicing profile, and I have a different startup gcode that allows me to clean the nozzle before the print begins.

RE:

Karl, that is actually what I was looking for.

This site can be a pain to navigate through sometimes. 

Usually I slice my own parts, however I am reprinting the Mk3s+ extruder parts out of PCCF, I downloaded all the stl's and when I get all my test printing done and go to print the (X carriage back) part I didn't know if I should add more perimeters or any of that fun stuff. 

All I was able to find was the .2 layer height, 20% grid Infill and no supports.

In printing these I have so many questions. 

Some people have the em set to .85 when the filament profile in prusaslicer default s at 1.04.

What should the final dimensions of these parts be?

Are the blueprints somewhere? 

Should I anneal the material after I finish, when it's all put together will it anneal itself and change size?

Alot going on here.

Thank you for your help.

Eric

For one of my printers, I've printed everything in a different color PETG (with the exception of the shroud which was printed with PC) with the standard 0.2mm profile but changed the infill to 20% gyroid and perimeters to 3. Haven't had any issues.

RE:

@eric-9,

I printed all parts from carbon nylon (ASA, ABS, PC, also PETG is suitable). The smaller parts with layer height 0.15 (3 perimeter), the larger parts with layer height 0.2 (4 perimeter). All with 50% infill and with a 0.4mm nozzle. For starters: Just print one part at a time (not several at the same time) and adjust the different parameters (temperature, speed, fan airflow, flow, perimeter....) if necessary.

wbr,

Karl

Prusa PCCF.

I just started printing my extruder parts.

Does anyone have an Idea why the edges turn whitish?

Prusaslicer. Textured plate.285/110.

Pc blend carbon fiber black.

Not easy to see in your attached picture - for me it looks ok - nothing untypical. Parts printed with carbon reinforced materials reflect light very differently depending on how the filament was oriented during printing (direction of nozzle movement).

I would report this to Prusa! Just log in with your Prusa account and select the eshop. After a few seconds the chat window should appear on the lower right corner. If the chat window does not open, disable a possibly activated adblocker or try another browser.

Maybe nozzletemp. (285 deg.) is too high?

RE:

I tried the chat with prusa and after an hour and a half +, the prusa tech told me to turn on ironing. I sent him the pic ( printed 5 different parts per his instructions) and he said that is an "acceptable print". I disagree but I was done with his guessing. 

Test Printing: when I print in vase mode pla or petg the walls are .018/.457mm thick. When I print the pccf the walls are .022/.558mm

I keep getting blobs or marks where the reaction marks are in prusaslicer  

I have tried to adjust the em from .7 to 1.04.
