Octoprint and MMU

I have some hard time printing with octoprint with my MMU.
I have some issues when i need to stop a print because octoprint didn't unload filament.

In octoprint you can use GCODE scripts for some action, like :
-After print job completes
-After print job is cancelled
-...

Any idea what scripts to use ?

When you cancel a print via Octoprint, you need to manually unload.

When I cancel, I raise Z at lease 20 mm, set temp to first layer temp, go to the printer and select unload, cut the end and reload.

Yes, it's a bit of a pain, but it works.

Yes I do the same but i use octoprint for remote surveillance, if i have to cancel a print remotely ... i have 100% chance of a jammed filament .

Can we script your action with some gcodes commandes ?

Re: Octoprint and MMU

Yes, you can program the "unload". After raising the nozzle you can add something along the lines of this:

G1 X0 Y200 F3600 ; move bed for easy removal
G1 E12 F2100 ; unload filament
G1 E-80 F5000
G1 E-5 F3500
G1 E-5 F2400
G1 E-2 F1000
G1 E10 F300
G1 E-10 F300
G1 E10 F600
G1 E-10 F600
G1 E10 F900
G1 E-10 F900
G1 E15 F1200
G1 E-15 F1200
G1 E5 F600
G4 S1 ; pause 1 second
M107 ; turn off fan
M104 S0 ; turn off temperature
M140 S0 ; turn off heatbed
M84 ; disable motors
