How to change temperature during a print.
I am currently printing using PLA. I have found that PLA works better for me with a bed temperature of 70F. The current presets for PLA are 60F. The print is short enough that i am sure that it will work but i would like the option to change the bed and nozzle temperatures during a print, or change the presets for my filaments. Is this possible and how is it done.
Thanks
Just make the change and then save the preset under a new name. It is now available for selection like any other.
Changes mid print require you to edit the G-code ... straightforward if you're a software guy but not otherwise.
Cheerio,
RE: How to change temperature during a print.
Thank you for your response. I am not a programmer, but i know how to read and change G code. I have never figured out how to change G code while it is running. As far as changing the temperature in Prusa Connect i can find no ware that it is doable other than changing to a new preset. I would like to change the preset for PLA but more important is to be able to change the temperature during a print based on the specific filament being used.
RE:
Hi, you can make a preset for different filaments in the slicer, then just select a different file to match the loaded filament. You can also set the temperature during the print yourself from the web (or the LCD). Sorry, there is no option for re-slicing the model with a different filament profile on the fly, depending on what filament you select in the web. Maybe an option to only show gcodes compatible with the current setup is a way to improve that sort of a use case
Changing dyamically can be done from the LCD menu as @tojik suggests, or you can pre-set a mid print change by searching for the layer in the G-code and inserting an M104 or M140 code.
Cheerio,
