Introduction And Questions

Hello Everyone,

My name is Nathan. I just finished calibrating my MK2 and have it printing the pursa logo as I write this. I bought the printer assembled as I don't have a lot of time right now to spend assembling. Overall the printer arrived in great shape. Only problem was all the zip ties that hold the heated bed to the z axis were snapped. Easy enough to fix! So far the first print is looking good.

My only question so far is is there a way to have the print head raise after prints instead of going to the back bottom corner. After each print I would like to be able to clean the nozzle / check the print head. As it stands now I need to finish each print and then manually raise the head. Is this something that could be added to slic3r or the firmware?

Thanks,
Nathan

Hi Nathan,

Welcome aboard 🙂

What you could do is to replace the command

G1 X0 Y200; home X axis

in the End-gcode section of the slicer by:

G1 X0 Y200 Z200

I'm like Jon Snow, I know nothing.
